Peel Fam: Fall break with the Cheneys

Another year for Fall Break at school and we're off...off to the Cheney's cabin in Hanna. Where's Hanna? It's somewhere past Kamas, Oakley, some other weird town in the Uintah mountains somewhere. Wherever it is, it's a fun place to be. The weather was pretty decent-as you can see from the pic above, it was sweatshirt weather but sunny. Clayton joined us too so that was fun. This pic was when we decided to go fishing one day-it was a little windy but still fun. We basically watched Emma catch a fish, we all ate lunch and took off.

Eli's usually a happy guy-Kate just wanted to force him to be happy at this moment.

Ok, Harley had quite the experience at the cabin. He was upstairs and whining to come down. Understand that these stairs are very steep and there is no railing to hang on to. Liam went up to get him and slipped coming down, Harley leaped out of his arms and took a tumble down the stairs and hit the wall at the bottom. He yelped and yelped for what seemed like forever as we were trying to calm him down. He couldn't even walk and he tensed up everywhere you touched him. We were scared and Liam and Eli were very emotional. We called a vet in the nearest big city and they said they could see him. Miraculous as it sounds, Harley started acting so much better, so much in fact that we decided not to take him in. We could tell though when we got home that he wasn't doing very good. We took him in to the vet and we were told that his back was tweaked pretty good and he had inflamation of the bowels (he had stopped eating all together). Doc gave us the right medicine for him (2 different pills and a special dog food) and within a day, Harley was acting great and has been good ever since. We keep praying for that little guy-he is almost 10 years old you know.
