Oh Give Me A Home...

We have just arrived home from a few days with our dear friends Ann & Glen Piper at Camp Comfort in Buffalo, Wyoming. Ann's family is responsible for this amazing compound that generation after generation has come to stay and unplug from the stress of the world. No TV's, one working rotary dial phone and no cell service. (Although my husband somehow managed to get a few bars, much to everyone's dismay and chiding.) It truly is heaven on earth and we feel so lucky to have been invited to stay and enjoy this magnificent place. The Piper's have a 3 year old named Kate that Ashley adores. They played beautifully together and had so much fun running and singing and laughing together. Their son, Baby James, just tried to keep up and gave everyone big smiles! I hope you enjoy some pictures from our trip.

The tradition at Camp Comfort when anyone leaves, is for the remaining people to gather at Cabin 1 and wave white flags. As you are driving away and get up to the ridge, you look down on Camp Comfort and are treated to a fond farewell. It is actually quite emotional. If you look closely at the red cabin, you can see the white flags that Ann and the rest of her family are waving.


Thanks again to the Piper's and to the Leahy extended family for a great trip!
