Onward to Utah!! The Frozen North

We left Wednesday after I got off work, and got three hours of the highway behind us. We camped at a little campground called Burro Creek. This was the first outing that we used our new, smaller tent, and it is awesome! It fits us just perfect, and it's super light so we can use it backpacking.

I kind of like pulling up to a campsite in the dark, because in the day light, I don't think that I would have made the pull-off. It just didn't look that pretty, but when the sun came up the next day, it was beautiful!!

Babs was even better than the last time we went camping. The weather was perfect and the company was great.

The next morning, we woke up and made our customary breakfast of oatmeal and cereal bars. We got back on the road at about 7:30 and drove all day until we arrived in the Salt Lake valley at 7:00 that evening Utah time. Babs was SUPER good!! We couldn't have asked her to be any better. She was very understanding of the cramped space, and she was even more cooperative when I let her drive...

j/k! Don't worry, all you baby lovers, the car was parked.

So we made it to Utah. The next couple days are going to be fun. We're going to go snowboarding and hang out and just have a good time. It's cold up here, and that's one thing that I don't miss when I come back here. I can do without the freezing temperatures.

Enjoy!
