The Sheltering Sky: Glamis, 09

Ian is 13 and rides with a smarty-grin. Ian does most everything with a smarty-grin.
Dakota is 15 and ponders his greatness.
' Meister-burger Buuurger-Meister, ' he said all weekend.
Mr. Curry resumes his place in the dune buggy...
he took me for a long ride in the dunes right before sunset.
and it was gorgeous.
Lola runs after cousin Jonathan
Everyone is hanging out at the campsite, in a circle. At night we circle the fire and make Smores and drink and laugh late into the darkness.
Lola wakes up rarin to go
Mr. Curry decides I don't have enough embarrassment in my life.
And we leave, dirty and happy.

Looks pretty OK to me.

Looks like so much fun -- thanks for posting.

And, yes, I'm embarrassed for you -- the socks with the flip-flops is just a big no-no.

And this is what they will remember.

It must be the grandest memory of all, to be gathered in a circle in the intimacy of smores.

Dirty and happy... One of the best combinations there is.

Great photographs, especially the socks with flip-flops! (I loved your caption!)

Jeanne Estridge said...

Love the socks and flip-flops!

Ohmygosh - my word verification is "belushi"!

I thought this looked a little Animal House....

Mwa said...

Those socks are priceless. Great way to spend time with family!

How totally fun!! Mr. Curry cracks me up.

I'm Katie. said...

Heh! I always love the men I'm with even more when they disregard my fashion anxiety and accompany me to the grocery store in socks and flip-flops. Or a kilt.

I mean- come one. What better reminder to not take life so seriously?

Love your weekend. :)

Phoenix said...

So awesome! I'm jealous of your weekend, girl!

Sounds like a blast! When shall we all do it together?

Petit fleur said...

Looks like fun. Although, in that last picture, Lola's eyes look like they are shooting daggers! The "DO NOT take MY picture!" look~ cute.

I also like the one of Dakota pondering his greatness, and Mr. Curry showing off his fashion sense.

Good times!
