Mountain Fever

On Wednesday Jc and I decided that we wanted to go to the mountains. We got everything into the car, including our 2 dogs and off we went. It had been awhile since we have been to the mountains even though they are about 5 minutes away. Well, when we got there the roads were all sandy and my car was not happy about it. Plus because of the fires we had 2 years ago most of the trees were gone so it was really hot. We turned around and decided we would drive tot he Beaver mountains which are about 40 minutes away. That was so much better. The temperature started to drop and it was like driving through Big Cottonwood Canyon. We chose a path and went off roading a little only to find we couldn't stop because there were cows everywhere. I wasn't going to try to have a picnic with the cows. Plus our dog Aussie, she's an Australian Shepherd, was going crazy in the back of the car. She wanted to get out and herd them. So we kept driving up the mountain. We finally came to a really nice area that had trees and was just beautiful. We stayed for a few hours and really enjoyed ourselves. Olivia even caught a grasshopper. I also think the kids like peeing outdoors. :) All in all it was a fun trip. The kids want to go camping next.
