24th of July in Flaming Gorge

One of our favorite family traditions is to go to Flaming Gorge for the 24th of July holiday. In Utah, we celebrate Pioneer Day on the 24th and it's a great excuse to have a day off!! We have had such fun in Flaming Gorge over the years and look forward to it each year. This year was a little different for us since we have a new motorhome. Instead of roughing it in the campground we stayed in a KOA in Manila and had a blast. (Mom enjoys the full hook ups the most - shower, hot food, shade, oh yea).





Harry and Erica were our camping and boating partners this year. They brought their van to sleep in but stayed with us in the lake. We had great food and great laughs.

We met up with Jim and Jackie; Scott and Deb; Don and Deb; and Tyler and Jamie. They all stayed at the Lucerne Marina and camped in their boats. Their boats have the big aft cabins and fit a ton of people. (We haven't joined the old man's club yet - probably never will if Todd has anything to say!)

We are so fortunate to have such amazing people that we get to spend time with!


This is typical of Kayden, Jordyn and Ebony. They love to ride right up front looking at the water and feeling the wind in their hair.

Not sure exactly what inspired this one. I'm sure Senor Bush has something to do with it. ;)


A great time was had by all. We can't wait to go again next year!

Wow, sorry we missed it this year. The pics are great. I love the one with Jordyn, Kayden and Ebony. Flaming Gorge looks as beautiful as ever. I'm glad you all had such a great time.
