Battle Creek

So I made it back safe and sound to Utah from Hershey. It was a great trip and it was fun to see my whole family!




This is my family with just the siblings. From left to right it's: Sharon, Tricia, Matt, Jon, Mark, Dave, Steve, Karin.







This weekened I went camping with my friend Trent and some of his friends. It was a small group, but was really fun. We hiked for a little over an hour up a canyon and then slept in a field. On the way up there was this beautiful waterfall! It was a lot bigger and cooler than I was thinking it would be.


So in order to get a group shot in front of the waterfall, we had to put my camera on a rock. It was kind of interesting to set up, but hey, it worked.







This is the view from a field about 5-10 minutes away from where we slept. That is Pleasant Grove and Utah lake in the distance. Look at how high we got!



Overall, It was a great night. We had tinfoil dinners with elk meat (my first time!) and then slept under the stars, or more correctly, the clouds. At least it didn't rain on us, right?

  1. Hey, I like your blog background...a big improvement! :) And, I noticed you named all the siblings, but you didn't list mom and dad...maybe somebody wouldn't know who they were. ;)

  2. Well thanks Sharon! I thought about that actually, but I think that most people will be smart enough to figure out who they are... :)
