At one point we went exploring over a marshy area and found moose and deer beds, dams that little beavers had built, and little fishes that were scared into hiding by our shadows. Crossing a very long log, Taylor realized it was unstable so as I come to cross unaware, Tay, at the other end, starts bouncing hard and says, "Just checking your stability." And to check out just how well my stability was, I started bouncing. Dumb, I know. Tay sees my test and starts jumping with the purpose of making me fall, and continues to do so even when I yell for him to stop. What a great guy:) That was a hard fall. Meanwhile Seth is warned of a beehive, and is chased by a mob of angry bees. The only thing that was going through my head at that moment was the bee sting scene in the forest from the movie, "My Girl" and I'm yelling, "Run!!!"...
Megan, witnessing this all with wide eyes from behind says, "I think I'll take another way."
Seth and Megan have become like family here in Logan. We run together, play games and cards, share family home evenings, get ice-cream, share recipes, breakfasts, lunches, dinners, long car drives up the beautiful mountains, camp, eat dutch oven food in the mountains, knock trees over in the mountains, throw rocks down steep canyon ravines (not recommended), share our innermost fears and excitements, build gingerbread houses, carve pumpkins, watch movies, go to movies, eat candy, laugh, and run some more. We've shared each others heartaches, and successes. They're the greatest friends ever and we will really miss them.

in self defense I didn't shake Jen off the log. After the stability check I left the log. Then later I heard her fall.
