Some time last year after driving through Bear Lake Annie decided that’s where this year’s Thorsted/Marshall campout should be. She reserved us camp spot right when they opened up for the year. Watkins joined us too. They are pretty much part of the annual campout now. Here we are on the drive up note the ankle brace Liv was wearing came in handy soon after this pic was taken.
We had the best time (well except for a sprained ankle I obtained as we were setting up camp the first day—stepped backwards off the trailer steps wrong and fell and landed right on the ankle—OUCH). The first morning there everyone toured Minnetonka caves. (Well everyone except me with the sprained ankle and Amber—who does not do well enclosed in a cave).
Tyler happened to have family that have private Bear Lake beach front property and they invited us to come hang and swim there. It was amazing! Kota absolutely loves frolicking and swimming and playing in the water and did not lay down on land until it was time to go. The kids paddled around on little kayaks. The beach was so great because it had a long sandy shallow beach that was perfect for the dog and kids to play on.
Annie, Amber and I caught a show at the Pickleville playhouse a place that I have always wanted to see a show at. Raspberry shakes were had by all. Jared and Heather Morris happened to be in town visiting Heather’s family that same week, so they came up to our campsite one night and visited with us.
