Alturas Camping

After getting corn planted and Trek, there was a small break of time that Brent designated as our time for a camp trip.  Never mind that it was freezing cold.  We set out for the Sawtooths and headed over to Alturas lake (so we could take the kayaks.)
We found a great spot next to the lake.  (And who are these kids playing checkers, they didn't learn that from me-guaranteed.)
 Ruby was just learning to ride her bike without training wheels.  A minor mishap and she was back on her way.

Judging by Delsie's nap, I was wishing I had a stroller my size.
 Launch time!
 These pictures still make me cold.  It was a pretty windy day.  We piled 3 to a kayak and set out for the end of the lake.


 We unloaded lunch and had a picnic.
 The bridge was the main attraction, or maybe it was the troll . . .

 Loaded up with all the girls so the boys could try their hand at sailing.
 What boy doesn't love to cut wood and make fire?  Hudson was in heaven.  Except I think he wished the saw had a motor.
 The kids love to play with the sink, even if they're bundled up in jackets.
 We took a drive over to Red Fish and I reminisced about the Nelson Reunion that used to happen there.
 Making the best of the long drive.
 Nearing the end and they were getting silly.
