I went Camping

We didn't see any bears, which is fine.

My friend's son was really worried that we would be attacked and eaten by bears.  But, we weren't.

So Pretty.
It's always hard to sleep the first night that you go camping.  The ground is too hard, your face gets too cold, you keep sliding to the side of your tent, your pillow doesn't stay under your head (assuming you brought a pillow) and wild animals are circling the tent waiting for the perfect moment to strike.  I did eventually fall asleep and only woke up a few times to cover up my face because my nose was cold.  Camping is great.

While we were in the wilderness, we hiked up to Timpanogos Cave.  I don't know if you've been there, but it is spectacular.  The hike isn't bad and the formations in the cave are absolutely beautiful.  I was totally geeking out.

Isn't this Awesome!!!
After that we went and "swam" in a reservoir (to swim, verb: to dip ones toes in the water) .  It was so cold, I thought I was going to die.  I made a deal with an eight year old that if he got all the way in the water, I would too...

Like I said, it was freezing.  I didn't stay in very long, I could feel my bones starting to crack from the cold.  Not really, but I did have to remind myself to breathe.

Spectacular View.
Then we came home.
Camping is great. 
The End.
