Memorial Day


This Memorial Day weekend we went and stayed at Boulder Mountain with Andrew’s parents, his sister and brother-in-law, and my little brother Brandon.  I guess the fishing is really good at Boulder Mountain so this is one of the main reasons Andrew and Brandon wanted to go.

Here’s Andrew driving his Motorcycle through a little stream on our way to McGath lake!

Brandon is the only one who caught a fish at Coleman Lake while I was there!  I didn’t catch a thing the whole time!!

We wore Gus right out!  He jumped in the back of the truck with us and laid down.  As soon as we started to pet him he fell right to sleep!

Gus really liked to lay down in the back of the truck..I think it was because of the carpet…

One of the days it was super windy and freezing cold!  The boys went to fish at Blind Lake, but us girls did not want to sit out and freeze all day so we went for a drive through Capitol Reef instead!  I’m glad we didn’t go the Blind lake because Andrew said his eyelet on his fishing pole was freezing and there was some ice by the lake still!!!

We drove to Capitol Gorge and decided to hike down to the see the Pioneer Registry.

Me and CarolAnn (Andrew’s sister) on the hike through Capitol Gorge.  We didn’t get all the way to the pioneer registry because it was super long! But it was still a fun hike and it was nice to be out and away from the wind back at camp.
We had a really fun trip and some great food too haha  I hope next year it isn’t as cold though and the wind doesn’t blow!  Then the fishing might be a little better as well!
