In a VAN down by the RIVER!

Did you know that the Colorado River runs through the-middle-of-nowhere Nevada? I didn't. It's about 30 min. away and we went there for Family Home Evening with Heather. We had a picnic of BBQ pork sandwiches, Chinese cabbage salad, watermelon, and fortune cookies. It was too hot to eat.

Tyce had a great time trying to hit a beer bottle bobbing in the river. After lots of small hits, he shattered the bottle in one triumphant throw of a rock. He had no problem finding another one for his game.



Cameron "swam" in the river (basically on the shore) and got filthy!



Harrison divided his time between hanging with Tyce and running up the hill.



Mary decided to explore by herself and got in a lot of trouble. You can imagine that her attitude was sour from the reprimand for the rest of the night. She only pretended to be having a good time for the camera.



Heather and Bryce went exploring too (to find Mary) and said the view from the top of the hill was pretty cool.





Isn't Heather a cutie? It was awesome to have her here for the week we were on vacation and the week following.



It was wicked hot down by the river, even in the evening, and I was kinda glad to get back to the car.

Who knew there was water in Nevada??? Cool. Or at least, tepid?
Glad you all had a good time. I like Heather's cute hair. Short = easy!
