Flaming Gorge

Kay C called me one day back in May and asked me if we were going to have a family camping trip this year, so he got me to thinking it would be really nice if we all could get together for a camping trip. I went to Coy and told him he needed to commit to a time when he could get away from work and farming and so he did. Thus it began, trying to figure out a place that everyone could enjoy something. I was having a hard time coming up with a place and than Kenneth suggested Flaming Gorge. I got a hold of all the kids and the planning began. We have enjoyed going to Elk Horn a couple of times but the last time it rained so much and being in tents well it was miserable so we decided against that. We reserved camping sites at the firefighters campground in Flaming Gorge and so that is where we went. We knew all of us would be in tents and so we hoped for good weather and we were lucky as we didn't get rained on at all and everyone came home with sunburns because it was hotter than we thought it would be in the mountains, but that was good for playing in the water. We bought a raft and the girls took Karter and went on the lake in the raft while the guys went fishing. Kenneth's Father-in-law was kind engouh to let Kenneth borrow his fishing boat for our trip so Kenneth took who ever wanted to out fishing. Coy was very excited to catch a mac. but didn't have any luck however they did catch some trout so all was not lost.
We were happy to have all of our family come and we look forward to doing another camping trip in the future.
We hope everyone is having a good summer and we are sad to think it is about over it seems like it just got started.
When we returned home we found out about Gary and are sad to hear of his condition. We are confident that with all our prayers for him that the surgery he needs will go well.
We hope this finds everyone else doing well.
