Walking Narrows

"The Narrows" Zions Canyon
June 21st
In order to get to the narrows you have to ride the Zions shuttle to the last stop in the Canyon then walk
a mile to get to the river where it starts, Tj wasn't to thrilled about the mile hike in and we were all less thrilled about it on the way back out the whole round trip probably took us 6 hours I am not sure how far we ended up going into the canyon, but it was worth it. It is beautiful in the canyon and the water is deep enough to swim in some spots. There were people jumping off big rocks into some of the deeper pools. Our suggestion to anyone wanting to do this go on a weekday and try to start by 9 a.m at the latest.
Is the water Cold Joe?
Yes is was pretty cool but felt good later in the day when
it was hot...

Beautiful Day!!!!


Great Scenery!!!!


Joe is a Chicken when it comes to deep water he cant float....


Me trying to teach him how to float but I think the boy has rocks  for muscles

So Cute!!!!

Cool little waterfalls 


Mammoth Creek "Uncle Teds Cabin"
June 11th 2012

T.J. and I met my cousin Pam at her dads cabin we helped her open it for the sea


Pam fishing at Panguitch Lake

She was the only one that caught a fish.!!!!!!

This is what you do when the fish are not biting.

 TJ baiting her hook with power bait good thing it wasn't a worm she wont put a worm on the hook!!!! HAHA
Guess who showed up ?
If you guessed Joe you are right. He just cant stay away from TJ or he has become
addicted to fishing not sure which. 
Dang Fish I sure wish they would bite,
I even put pink lemonade bait on !!!!

Awwwww aren't they just so cute.....
I think he crushed her legs. hahaha

Duck Creek Pond
If you look close you can see a momma duck and all her baby's there were 8 of them.
This is truly a Duck pond there were probably 40 or more ducks on it.




Pam and I fished at Duck creek Pond, didn't catch a thing unless moss counts....
