Biggs Family Reunion

Over the fourth of July weekend we not only celebrated Independence Day we also had the Biggs Family Reunion.  It was held at my Uncle Harolds place up in Pinedale, AZ which isn't terribly far from where the old family cabin is so we diecided rather than waste time setting up a tent and all that we would stay in the old cabin.  Many people don't care to stay in it because it's old and small, but I guess because Todd and I grew up going to the cabin and staying in it that it doesn't really bother us much.  It's just old and small.
Rosie wasn't terribly impressed with the old place eitehr but was a good sport about the experience for the most part.  Below are some pictures of the cabin as well as a picture of the land it sits on.  The apple trees were trees that were planted shortly after the place was built by my grandpa years ago.  At least that's what I remember being told.
We stayed at the cabin the first 2 nights and then decided rather than spend time driving back and forth that the last nigth we would rough it a bit and sleep outside on the ground. We ended up getting some mats donated to sleep on and we were able to cuddle up and stay relatively warm for the night.
In Pinedale there's this old structure-at least it appears old, but I think I was told it's not nearly as old as one might think, that has been dubbed "The Leaning Tower of Pinedale" for obvious reasons and Rosie decided it was a good photo op.
Overall, we had a great time, but our camera ran out of charge and we forgot the charger at home.  It was great spending time with family

  1. All the times I've been there and I never thought to take a picture of the old cabin... Well, I haven't been there very many times, but still...
