Bear Lake

Chris and his dad Todd had to go to a fire training up in Bear Lake at Rendezvous Beach for a Wild land class
We went up Thursday after fishing to spend the night
Todd and Jana (Chris's step mom) pulled their camper up there
Kennedy and I drove our car
Chris had to take a brush truck up
We found our camp site and started a fire for the night
It was so nice just hanging out
Listening to the geese
Fire burning
Chris's uncle and cousin were also up there and a bunch of other firemen
The next morning they had to get up early for class
The whole campsite was full of firemen just for the training
Tents and campers
Engines and brush trucks every where
I wish I would have been able to get more pictures of them but the weather sucked
It was cold and rainy
Plus they trained in a canyon a ways away
Chris and Todd getting ready to go
The weather was horrible
Rainy
Cold
Windy
We stayed in the camper all day with Jana
Kennedy colored, watched tv, drew pictures, played with her toys
Finally there was a little break in the weather and we took a walk out to the beach so she could run off some energy
She still kept begging to go swimming

The rain started back up and we went back inside
A few hours later it stopped again and we went for walk
She was having so much fun running and splashing in every puddle
She hit every single puddle all around the park
The guys came back from a long day training, finding fires, hiking, using GPS's and doing scenarios
They had about a 30 minute break and they had to go back for a night class from 530-10
Kennedy and I headed out about 6 to come back home
They sounded like they had a fun class
After that they had to be back at 6 am for more training
It was a two day class so thats why most of them camped up there

On the way down I stopped on a car upside down in the river
It had flipped and was on its roof pretty submerged
The truck that had stopped infront of me had gotten the driver out of the car about 5 minutes before I stopped
He was ok just cold and shaken!
