From South America, we headed directly to Alaska to attend my sister Juniper's wedding. We had a fabulous visit, caught up with friends and family, and heard and played a bunch of music with Bill and his family and friends. We were so impressed with Juniper and Bill's calmness and hospitality in the face of a flood of family. They even rallied to take us and my folks out for a four day wilderness raft trip down the Tazlina river the week before the wedding! Anyhow, here are a few photos of our Alaska time:

From Alaska we travelled to Wisconsin where we had the great fortune to be able to help welcome to the world Rose's sister Allicia's new baby, Devan Raymond Woodhouse. He is a lovely and healthy little black-haired boy, sweet in disposition and perfect in every way. Hopefully we'll be able to get some photos of the little guy posted soon. Congratulations to Allicia and Craig!
After a great visit with Rose's family which culminated with a fabulous party at the Hendricks homestead, we headed west again to Driggs, Idaho, which is to be our new home! I interviewed for and eventually got a job with Friends of the Teton River heading up their new streamflow restoration program. I start up on August 11th and am really excited. We also found a great little place to live, complete with a view of the mountains and lots of space for guests - so start planning your trip to Driggs! We figure we have accrued a gigantic karmic hospitality debt during our travels and it is up to all of you to come visit and help us correct the imbalance!
We have been having a fabulous time rambling round the Tetons and catching up with our friends in the region, including Jerod and Sage who just got married on Sunday in one of the greatest weddings we have had the pleasure of attending - wonderful people, fabulous music, great food, and the prettiest setting imaginable - a historic homestead surrounded by waving fields of barley, with the Tetons looming in the background.
More photos soon - our love and best wishes to all,
Ty
