Camping is fun...

So, this weekend we went camping in the Uintahs. We had a great time spending quality time together enjoying nature and the joys of potty-ing outside. We "rough-ed it" this time. Tent sleeping sure isn't the same as sleeping on the giant pillow-top bed in the trailer! And, there's nothing quite as enjoyable as plants tickling your fun parts as you squat to "go" and try hard not to pee on your shoes. Ott did make a make-shift outhouse for all his girls though. It was fashioned out of a camping shower stall and a port-a-potty.

We went on 2 long rides. The last one being on Saturday morning from 9:00-2:30! And these hills were rate "MOST DIFFICULT". The hills were SOO steep, going up and down. Tahne squeezed me so tight that I had a stomach ache the whole rest of the day.

This was the first time we'd seen the area since the forest fire....4 yrs ago (i think). It was sad to see the acres of burned trees. They span as far as you could see in someplaces. It really bothered Tahne because she is such a tree hugger. But even in all the destruction, new plants and trees were growing. It just proves that nature and life goes on.

We found a lot of new trail that were fun to explore. There were 2 cool bridges that we stopped at for photo ops. We saw alot of wild life, a bunny that Ott wanted to shoot. Cows that Tesse wanted to "spank" and a deer that Ott hit with a rock.

It was fun..but all good things must come to an end..so we went home and took A SHOWER. AAHH. Heaven!
