Though we normally like to avoid camping on holiday weekends - due to everyone's work schedule we decided to head out for the First Annual Wuerfel Memorial Day Weekend.

Brian and David headed up Wednesday mid-afternoon to ensure we would get a good camping spot.  Sarah, Grace and I went up on Thursday after Sarah got off work.

Brian and David found a marvelous spot in campground 9354.  We were extremely secluded.  In fact, no one ever heard the screams while we were playing corn hole!!

Thursday Brian and David fished - they caught fish and had a great time.


On Friday we weren't sure when Jay and Megan were coming up so we just bummed around, then decided to head over to Woods Canyon Lake.  There were quite a few people and the fish appeared to be sleeping....

Jay and Megan arrived about dinner time. We had a nice evening just sitting around the propane campfire.


On Saturday we headed over to Bear Canyon Lake for more fishing.  As usual - no fish.  We should probably remember that since we have NEVER caught fish there!!

After lunch we headed to the edge of the rim to take pictures then over to Gentry Lookout and Black Canyon Lake. 

The great thing - fishing was decent.  So decent that we ended up there again on Sunday.  David, Jay and Brian had a blast - between them they caught ten fish. 

We went back to camp.  For dinner we had some of the fish and made pizza.  We then played Phase 10 until we were too cold to continue!!

On Monday we headed home.  This was by far one of the best camping trips we have ever had.  It is really cool to hang out with your children.

God is very good!!
