Ryan Receives His Eagle Scout Award

Ryan's Eagle Court of Honor was one of the happiest days of my life.

Proud Dad and Mom.
Look closely on my lapel--you see the eagle scout badge I received 39 years ago, in 1971, at Troop 131 in Torrance, CA.
I wore it to illustrate a "Tribute to Eagle Scouts" talk I gave for the Court of Honor.
(Date on camera should be 7/15/2010.)

Eagle Scouts: Drew Barretto, Ryan Robinson, Jason Harris, Jacob Gibbons
Troop 767, Foothill Ranch CA

Thanks to all for your support and encouragement of Ryan.
There are 5 eagle scouts in this picture--only one in uniform.
Steve and Marion started the tradition with their sons, now continuing with grandsons, and soon to be great-grand-sons.
(Dylan will be a cub scout in 6 short years!)

Hap & Jannetta Family Reunion

We enjoyed our trip to Utah for the annual Hap & Jannetta Robinson Family Reunion held at Farmington Park.

A group photo at the pavilion. JoAnn and Family are bringing us up to date.

Thanks to Grandpa Steve and Grandma Marion for keeping up the tradition.
We love you.

Clay and MaryLou Robinson led us on a hike up Farmington Canyon.

Clay was our tour guide. He stopped every few minutes to point out past adventures... Here's where his Dad (uncle Rick Robinson) shot his first mountain lions (when he was 12), or here's were they restored a trail to prevent any more horses from rolling to their deaths...

Clay led the boys, Brent, Ben, Josh, Nathan, Ryan, down the cliff and trail to the gushing waterfall at the bottom of the canyon. The picture does not do justice to the scale or height exposure.

Proof that they made it to the falls.

Wonderful trip!

Thanks also to Joyce, Sean, Jill and family for the fun we had staying with you! My pix of the Bountiful stay got lost!
