Camping Fun

This past weekend we went camping as a family with some friends and other fellow geocachers. We headed out to Potter's Pond in the Manti-Lasal National Forest. The kids really enjoy camping, playing in the dirt, exploring nature, and eating marshmallows. We had a fun time exploring the area and doing some geocaching. We had originally planned to stay for 2 nights and ended up coming home late the 2nd day. We weren't as prepared for the cold weather at night as we should have been and we knew there was a chance of rain in the forecast. We chose not to freeze another night and take the chance of getting wet. We lucked out and made a good decision to come home, since it DID rain, and it rained hard. We have a good tent, but lots of rain takes the fun out of camping. Logan even got to reel in a fish from the fishing pond. We happened to be walking by when a gentleman was in the process of reeling in the fish he just caught. He offered to let Logan take over. He was pretty stoked and enjoyed his first fishing experience. He wouldn't hold the fish for the camera though. He touched it and thought it was too slimy! Maybe next time...
