Four wheeling with Chris

This past weekend, for another one of our short vacation trips, we took Chris and went four wheeling up Logan Canyon. We found a perfect campsite up Temple Fork and set up camp. I got to cook out of the dutch oven and over the camp fire and really enjoyed it. Dad and Chris both said the food was delicious, so I was pleased with myself. The trip was a lot of fun, I haven't been camping for a couple of years and really wanted to make sure that we went this year.




Here is a picture of Dad and Chris on one of the many trips we went on. This trip was exploring the road that connects Logan Canyon with Blacksmith Fork Canyon. It was a long ride and I got sun burned, but it was fun anyway. Another trip we went on was to Old Eprihams grave. I forgot the camera on that trip, but it was amazing to see just how big that old grizzly bear was. I would have been scared to come upon him in the middle of the night.




Chris said he had a good time, but he sure looks worn out here. We really enjoyed the time we were able to spend with him and hope that he doesn't mind hanging around a couple of old people ocassionally.

Bar J Wranglers Weekend

This past weekend, as part of our summer vacation and taking short trips to places were we have always wanted to go, but haven't make it to them yet. We decided to go to Jackson Hole Wyoming to see the Bar J Wranglers perform. Here is a picture of Daryl at the look out point over Bear Lake. It has been a long time since we stopped at this point and it sure has changed. It was nice to see the lake from this distance.




I have always loved this sign so, of course, we could not go through Afton Wyoming without taking a picture. We didn't even have to stop for the picture, Daryl took it as we were driving down the road. What a great camera man. It turned out so good.



After traveling for what seemed like forever, we finally arrived in Jackson Hole at the Bar J ranch. We waited in line for another 2.5 hours before they started handing out tickets. We got excellent seats second row back right in the middle.




To end the weekend perfectly, we went to Monica and Sean's and spend Sunday with them, attending church and playing with the boys. Here is a picture of Grandpa and his two grandsons reading a book. Everyone is enjoying it. Thanks Monica and Sean for letting us spend the night and Sunday with you.
