We took off early July 4th up to Bear Lake, Garden City, Utah, a stop on the Amazing Race Season 8th Family Edition. They stayed at Bear Lake State Park, Rendevous Beach, right where we were planning on staying, what a coincidence :)
Thanks to the Campbells for opening up the land in their camping site so that we could pitch a couple of tents to hang out.
Bear Lake is huge, approx 22 miles long and 8 miles wide at the widest point, crystal blue water and fairly cold. Everyone enjoyed the water. Tom/Lisa took their kayaks up and everyone had a blast with those. The beach's sand is nice and very compactable so that you can build sandcastles. The boys had Tom bury them up to their necks and we all enjoyed adding our own little touches to their "physiques".
The weather was beautiful with high's in the 80's and lows in the 50's, great sleeping weather. We all got to experience the famous Raspberry shakes that Bear Lake is known for, well worth the trip, but then again, when haven't the Meihls' ever NOT enjoyed any kind of ice cream.
Cooking out on the fire was fun this trip. We hadn't done that in a while so it was nice to get back in the swing of things.
Sue was still on cloud 9 after having registered for Survivor, we're still keeping our fingers crossed for her to get a phone call back for an additional interview.....
Well it appears as though Summer is now half way over, where has the time gone.
Stay tuned, obviously we have many more short trips that'll come up.
Sue and Dan
