Annette sent me this email and a picture of an owl. Not sure if I can get it on but I'll try...

As you know we went to Pineview for the weekend and tested out our new spot, our old spot is no longer reservable as it is now a camp host spot. I forgot what it is like to camp in the bitter cold. It rained off and on the whole time but we still had a great trip. Chance and Alexis checked out the lake as soon as they set up their tent and came running back saying "the beach is gone, the beach is gone". The water is really high. They went swimming twice and people told them they were crazy, including Blaine and I. But they would come back shivering and all blue but with big grins on their faces!! What it is like to be young with no fear and only determination.

We met a wonderful family while we were there and became fast friends. It is always amazing to me how that can happen so fast with a complete stranger. We even had a Sunday meeting with them. There son who just came back from a mission gave the lesson and did a wonderful job. Alice the mother told Alexis and Chance how often do you get to worship in the mountains and at 10:00 at night! We even sang an opening and closing song and had a wonderful dutch oven desert.

I am attaching a picture of an owl that was camped in a tree above our camp ground. It was neat to watch it.

Take care.

Annette
