It was a beautiful day. The sun was shinning. Our daughter, Kimberly, our son-in-law, Challis, and their baby, Athea, and Mike and Brenda went to the cabin. Challis loaded the four-wheeler in the back of the truck and he drove the truck with Athea in her carseat with him and Kimberly drove her car and Brenda and Mike road with her. Challis unloaded the four-wheeler at the cabin and helped Mike and Brenda onto the four-wheeler and Mike drove down the hill from the garage to the cabin door. Challis then gave Mike a piggy back ride up the stairs to the cabin and put him in a chair. We spent a few hours at the cabin relaxing.
This last week there have been a lot of firsts for Mike since his illness. He has been walking a little with a front-wheeled walker some at home. He walked along the walls at the cabin with Challis standing by to catch him if he needed to. When we got ready to go home, Challis walked in front of Mike down the stairs. Mike went very slowly down the stairs under his own power and then Challis and Kim helped him back to the four-wheeler. He was really tired. Brenda got on the back of the four-wheeler and Mike drove down to Cougar Mountain Lodge, where we had lunch and then Challis loaded the four-wheeler and we all came home. It was a great day.

What a great outing! That is a big accomplishment! Nothing like the healing powers of being out in nature and somewhere that you love to go. What a wonderful family you have to be so supportive.
Keep up the good work Mike!
