Duchesne Camp Out

Post by judith »

We had a 5 day campout on the North Fork of the Duchesne last week with Mike, D & D and girls, and J & A & SR. Cold at night (40 F) and hot in the day (90). We camped near the river and no one else was around, because Mom put up a big sign on the road that said "RCB Reunion". It was Steven's first camping trip, and he was well taken care of and (fairly) well behaved. He is about twenty pounds now, and a load for G & G. We have taught him to roll over, next is to teach him to crawl. Ann says to go slow! Here's the show:

looks like my kind of weekend (5 days) and a spectacular location. I might try that sign at the end of the road trick. Have to be careful it doesn't backfire, like putting up "nudidst re-union" or "survivalist convention" etc.

those were pretty impressive suasages you were cooking Dave, i hope everybody got one of their own!

sliced them up and added them to a cajun red beans and rice mix. Delicious. We were only there for one of the nights which was way to short to get my relax going. Dominique has been getting a lot of action in the real estate business so we hung around for that and sent the little ladies with G&G D4D M0M and Mike MM .

It was great to see Little Steven 22 ! He's growin like a weed. Mom can teach him to crawl and I'll teach him swear words (flip, fetch, dash, and dang, the good ones)

Can't wait to do it again.
