Bear Lake

You know it's summer when it's warm enough to spend a few days at Bear Lake.
Bill and Todd did an early morning bike ride.

The kids found a dead fish next to the shore.
And digging in the sand was a favorite activity.
We went to the Minnetonka Cave but had to wait an hour and a half before we could go in.
So we pulled out some lunch and ate in the hot parking lot.

Nice and cool inside the cave.
This was the only formation we were allowed to touch.
The scenery coming out of the cave was very pretty.
Loved the view of the mountains.
Very good friends of ours have a cabin and a boat and jet-skies, etc.
So we got to have the whole Bear Lake experience!!! So much fun!!!
The water was cold but the kids didn't seem to mind.
We all got sunburned where the sunscreen didn't get put.


Lots of good food, dutch oven, one night, etc.
Two of the evenings, huge clouds, wind, and rain decided to blow in.
But the mornings were pleasant. Umm, bacon's cooking and smelling good.

Pretty sunset after the storm left.
Had a great time with the family!!!

That WAS a fun little trip. (Shouldn't say little, it was a lot of work!). My kids LOVED it and are still talking it up to their friends.

Fun fun! Let's do it again. Hopefully next time I'll be able to sit once in a while instead of chase Mitchell all over.

That was fun! I'm still annoyed that the weather ruined dinner every night, but I'm glad we were able to have a good time together.
