Camping Day 3

Monday morning, we got up and got things cleaned up. Bryce cooked omelettes for everyone and then we headed out on a four wheeler ride. Roger came up to go with us and we ended up having a really good time. The weather was cloudy and perfect. I had Cooper with me. Bryce had Reese and Clayton. Jacqui had Jaxson and Landon and Jared rode his motorcycle.
Clayton was so excited about the ride. Every time we would stop, he was trying to get us to go again. He also likes to turn the key ON for us when we are about to start it up. He could ride on that thing all day, if we would let him. In fact, he was very distraught when we loaded them on the trailer to head home. The ride was beautiful. It is still so green up there and the flowers and trees are so pretty. The only thing that was difficult was the dirt flying up. We had to stay back from each other, so we didn't eat dirt the whole time.

There were a few scary moments. Cooper and I almost tipped. There were some really deep ruts and I was trying to straddle them with my machine, but obviously didn't do a good job, and two tires came off the ground. I was a little nervous, but Jared and Roger helped me get back on the trail safely. We stopped a couple of times to let the kids run around for a few minutes. We were all covered in dirt. The kids had a fun time. We finally made it to the top of one of the trails and it overlooked Pine View Lake. It was gorgeous up there but the wind blew like crazy.
