A Little Get Away

DJ and I were able to get away for a couple of days this past weekend with our friends, Doug and Brenda. We took the ATV's up to the Uintahs. It was about a 2 hr. drive. There's no better get away than heading for the mountains!


We went through Evanston, WY then back into Utah towards Bear River Lodge. We've snowmobiled in that area before and it's beautiful.

pretty day

This wasn't far from our campsite. Utah is such a beautiful state. There's so much more to it than most people realize!

It was a bit windy.

We both love the mountains and exploring them!

morning camp visitor

We went for a morning ride. You can't see it very well but this area had a flow of snow melt off  moving through. It was cold and windy up there. Elevation was close to 10,000 feet.

We went through a few mud puddles :)

We finally turned around before we ended up having to dig ourselves out of a cold, muddy mess.

We didn't go through this one.........not that it wouldn't have been fun!

heading back down from the big puddles


This area was a combination of dead trees and some areas where a fire went through.

What's not to love about this scenery?

Hill AFB's Carter Creek Cabins

a pretty and peaceful setting ~ these cabins are available for military families to rent

a small cattle drive we encountered on our way back to Evanston

the cowboy way of life is still alive and well in Wyoming


School is out for the year. Ben is no longer a 10th grader. He's planning on graduating as a junior next year.  More on that later. 

This next year has a lot going on for our family ~ it's so wonderful watching the kids grow up but it sure has it's sad moments too!

Welcome Summer!
