Gleason Visit Day One and Two July 2025

The annual summer trip to the river for the Gleason family! Grandpa Mike and Rivers.  Rivers is 13 years old.
This is me with Gray.  Gray is 6 years old.

Mike and Steve! Father and son. 
I am not sure what Mike was looking for but when he has his binoculars there is always a chance something might be roaming around in the forest.  Nothing this time. 




Boat time.  We always take a ride in the pontoon boat.  
Rivers! 1-2-3 BACK FLIP


Fishing is a focus for everyone!  Not my favorite but they all love it.  
Mike is helping Landry, River's friend. 
Jenny and Steve!
Mike, a cousin and Gray!
We took off in the pontoon and Rivers helped push us off. We left him! No problem, he jumped in and swam to the boat. 
They call this the diaper life jacket. Weird but they love it. 

Drinking root beer in the water!

Michel and Gray
Cousin, Michel and Gray
Not sure what they are doing!

Coaching!

Here we go, they are all worn out!
Mike is the pillow!!
This is called the clay beach.  It is full of clay!!
Mike, Gray and Michel!





There was clay fight going on.  A lot like a snowball fight but with clay. Clay is nothing like mud.  It is sticky and hard to remove from anything. 
Beau joined the fight. 
I hope they clean the front of the pontoon boat because of the clay that landed on the front of it. 
As alway we love getting to spend time with our NOLA family in this beautiful setting. They are headed home soon!

Visit Number Two with the Gleasons

This day was a day for a boat ride.  It was a little chilly but it was beautiful cruising around the river.  Here we go!
Michel!

Gray kept going upside down landing on the back of the boat.  She didn't fall off even thought at times it looked as if she might. Youth. 
Boat transfer.  Landry and Rivers were on another boat learning how to ???? I can't remember what it was.  Wave surfing maybe. 
This is Kace, Kyle's son.  Kyle is a part of the family as a caregiver for Steve. 


Tubing for Kace and Landry. BRRR!

Landry was trying to stand on the tube. 

Back on dry land!  The artist at work in her box. 

Pretty sure we get a picture like this every year!


We picked Gail up so she could see Steve.  She doesn't drive anymore.  
It was a wonderful day at the river.  Again, we will be back!!!
