Thanks for sharing Scott. She's a lovely little lady. If only we could just put on a pair of glasses and see through the eyes of a child! Great vids

Means a lot that you liked the video so much, Shug. I never would have even tried to do a video without your awesome precedents. I'm glad to be able to entertain the master...

Isn't being outdoors with your little one great?

Thanks for posting - it reminds me of when my daughter was about that age. She and her 1 year younger brother and I spent 3 days camping in the High Peaks region of the Adirondacks. In fact, we took annual camping trips at the end of each summer before school started. Now they are 14 and 15 and it's hard to find the time but we do still camp.

Finding the time is the key...cool story. Appreciate the thanks!
