Close to home

When we aren't doing big trips, we love to just play in our back yard. There is so much to do right here in Utah, and so camping as often as possible, exploring our immediate surroundings, overnighters, and 2-3 day road trips are what we love to do. Unlike most people, weather is seldom an issue that would keep us indoors. Winter camping takes some getting used to, but we have done it a couple times and have to say it's all right.
Creighton and Karac are still adjusting to the learning how to pack, carry, and set up all of your own stuff concept, but they are doing it, and are getting better and better at it! We are determined to get the gear part of camping down to a science so that as time goes on, our outings will become less of a production and more second nature to all.
Here are a few of the hikes, campouts, rivers rafted and other random outings we have done over the past year. And now that I have posted all of the past stuff we have done and gotten everyone up to date, I can go into much more detail about our trips and events that are going to unfold for 09. There are huge surprises in store for the year so stay tuned, you won't want to miss!
