Family camping trip to Gooseberry!

Ok, so were pretty lousy at updating our blog lately. I would profess a penitent heart and a resolve to do much better but I'm not gonna make promises I may not keep! Anyways, here was a really fun camping trip that we took up Salina canyon at a pretty little campground called Gooseberry. After unloading the car of all our gear, I realized that of all the things to forget, it just had to be the tents! We looked at the sky and were somewhat comforted that there was not a cloud in the sky! So, yeah, we just slept under the stars! And what a beautiful night time sky it was too so we were lucky enough to feel that forgetting the tents was actually a blessing. The milky way was bright and with no moon, there were a million stars to see. We hiked, played in the stream, pushed giant dead quaken aspen trees over and listened to their crashing echo through the groves of trees, and had a blast doing it all! We cannot wait to do it again soon!

Fun campout - we had a reunion there a few years ago - who knew that outside the ugly town of Salina that a pretty spot would appear like gooseberry :) Your little family is growing up! Hope you are all doing well!

Forgetting the tents is totally something I would do. I'm glad it worked out for you.
Your family is so cute, we wish we could see you all more often.
