We Made It

Snow across praire. Boise good. Burley good, power off in whole town for couple of hours, Mom had headlamp. Snowed overnight. Snowing this morning. Near whiteout at Snowville. Semi's and cars off every where. Sometimes speed was 15 MPH. We're here at the motel looking forward to more excitement tomorrow.

Klondike

This weekend was the Klondike campout.  The theme was "Frozen Longer than the Dead Dude."  You need to read this article about the frozen dead guy of Nederland to fully understand the story.  Although there wasn't a lot of snow, we had a fun time.  Here are some pictures of the various activities-

 

Thanks to help from Uncle Travis, Tyler received a new tent for Christmas.  It is the yellow tent behind the sled and it is a lot like Uncle Matt's.  It worked well on the maiden voyage.

 

We ate great on this campout!  Here Ty is cooking grilled cheese sandwiches that included ham, pineapple and brown sugar as well. YUM!

 

Not a lot of snow this year.

 

So we played on the frozen lake

 

Fire starting with flint and steel

 

Muzzle loading rifles.  Black powder is fun!

 

Ty hit his target, a hanging clay pigeon.
