Ward Campout

Friday night we had the ward campout at Kamiak Butte.

After we ate dinner and set up camp, we went to the playground area with the Mclains.

Here is the view from the playground/day use area.  An up close picture of wheat (still too green to harvest).

The Mclains went home before they got locked into the park and we went back to camp.  We were the only ones who spent the night, so I guess we had date night instead of the ward campout.  We played Uno and Rummy and roasted marshmallows for smores on our Coleman stove since we couldn't have open fires.  We forgot the pump for the air mattress so we really had to rough it by sleeping on the ground.  Neither one of us slept very good, I guess we are getting old.  :(

The next morning we hiked up Kamiak Butte after breakfast.

We stopped to play with the camera and take pictures of flowers.  Fun huh?!

We made it to the top!  Look at the view!  This is where we live and what we see everyday.

Fresh Coat of Paint

To help the condo sell, and to pass inspection, we redid the bathroom a bit. We painted and changed out the towel racks. It was good fun.

Pop the Question!

I won Pop the Question the other morning on the radio. I answered "Over twelve thousand of these are lost at airports each week." The answer is laptops! I got two free movie tickets and a 1gb thumb drive.
