There is Beauty All Around

We are so lucky to live in Salmon! It is so close to mountains, lakes, rivers, and wildlife. It is awesome to drive a half hour and feel like a part of nature! A few weeks ago, we took a "day camping" trip to Napias Creek to visit the Lingers (who really were camping). Napias Creek is just up the road about 20 miles (=40 minutes). We had a great time!

We ate yummy dinner prepared in dutch ovens by Jason & Hailey.
We sat around the campfire, just chilling and visiting.

The boys rode bikes and 4-wheelers around the campsite, built a fort made out of sticks, and fished in the clear creek.After dinner was all cleaned up, and dessert was cooking in the dutch oven, Hailey and I took a walk downstream. We loved seeing all the beautiful little waterfalls. The walk back up was more like a hike, but so well worth it!It was a lovely afternoon/evening, and so relaxing! I was craving to go camping when it was time to leave!! Hopefully that will be as soon as next weekend!

Hi Kala;

I wanted to tell you how much I enjoy reading your blog. I like your stories, all short, sweet, but more importantly well written. I think you have a knack for it. Ever thought about writing for a newspaper... Keep up the stories!
