On Thursday, July 10 our family took off on a grand adventure and we won't be back home until school starts near the end of August. We've already spent the first week of our adventure in the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho at Red Fish Lake. What a gorgeous place! Me, Taylir, Colton and the dogs drove the truck to Boise where we met up with Mark who flew in from Portland (Kylie and Carson flew in a few days later and we picked them up at the airport in Hailey). Our trailer had been parked at Mark's cousin's house in Boise so we hitched up and met up with the Cowley's at the Glacier View Campground at Red Fish Lake.
We had a blast there and the scenery was breathtaking! The kids had fun with Bryson, Brady and Jordan and also cousin Petie who joined us for 3 of the days along with Grandma Garrison, Uncle Pete and Aunt Dayna.
After 6 days of the mountain fresh air we headed back to Boise and stayed overnight there and cleaned up the trailer for the next leg of our adventure. Me and the girls did 18 loads of laundry at the local laundry mat while the boys got in a little more fishing on Pete's boat. The dogs were also with us because it was too hot to leave them in the trailer, and they accidentally locked themselves in the still running truck. Luckily after 5-minutes Gunner rolled down the window the same way he locked the door and we were able to get into the truck....whew!!
This morning we got up and headed to Oregon where we plan on staying until August 16. Right now we are at a campground in Scappoose and loving being back here. I'm going to keep this blog updated daily I hope, since we now have an internet connection.
