We Have Great Neighbors

A couple of weeks ago our fabulous neighbors, The Drury's, invited us and the Luft's to spend the weekend with them at their cabin. We all headed up to the cabin, which is just outside of Duchesne, on Friday July 26. The view from the front porch of the cabin, WOW!
After sleeping in on Saturday morning we went for an ATV ride. We took a 10 mile ride to some really cool rock formations.








Chandler, Erin, Kylee and Trevor on top of the rocks! Before we started out on our ride Cary had mentioned to us that it looked like it might rain. None of us were worried, we figured it wouldn't be that bad or it would blow over. About 5 minutes after we got to the rocks it started to rain, then pour and then hail. We were all huddled together under a tree (not sure it was really helping) yelling ouch as we were pelted with hail! We also ended up covered in pine needles and crap from the tree we were under. Hey Terra, I'll do you if you do me! Easy boys, just trying to get the crap off us!

All the rain and hail made for an interesting ride back to the cabin! There were huge mud puddles on the trail and we were soaking wet already. The minute we hit the trail mud was flying everywhere! I told Bryce to get me out of here, as I was freezing cold (tank tops do not do much to keep out the hail). As we were flying down the trail getting pelted with mud I was thinking to myself: I should have taken Jeri up on her offer of a helmet, goggles, etc. Bryce wanted a picture of us after the muddy ride so bad that we waited at least 20 minutes for everyone to get back to the cabin. And yes Clint, this is the dirtiest I have ever been!

After a nice shower we all gathered around the fire and roasted marshmallows and made smores. Thanks Terra for the pictures! Thanks Jeri and Cary for a great weekend at the cabin. We're ready to come back anytime!
