We went camping at Smith and Morehouse this weekend. It is a super great place that is about an hour from our house - yes, super close - but it is secluded and mountain-y and just downright relaxing. I actually didn't even get cell phone service, which I admit makes me have anxiety a little bit, but it was really nice to just relax. The mountains are so green this year and just beautiful. Ahhh it was nice!
We got there Friday afternoon and the weather was great - I thought it was going to be so cold, but it was nice. John and I set up camp and did some fishing. Our friends Monica and Eric joined us later that night. Saturday we woke up to a big old cloudy mess. SO...we hung out at camp, made some yummy breakfast, and just waited for the storm to pass. It soon did and we went over to the little lake for some more canoeing and fishing. This was soon interrupted by a crazy rainstorm. I mean, it just started pouring! We had canoed across the lake, so we were kind of stuck. It was raining crazy hard and we had to make three or four trips back across the lake to get all our stuff back to the truck. Yep, it was an adventure to say the least. We were soaked, cold, and muddy, so we dried off and just hung out at camp... OH and ate some more. It seemed like the only logical thing to do :) Saturday night cleared up and John was able to get in some really good fly fishing. Then the weekend came to an end...we woke up early Sunday and headed home. It was hotter than HELL on Sunday in SLC, so we opted to stay inside for the day. What a great finish to the weekend.
Here are some pics from camping:
