The Hardings: July 2011

I can't believe that July is over. For the fourth of July weekend Kyle and I went to Gold Springs. We have been out there a million times but this time we wanted to find the road that went from Gold Springs over to Hamlin Valley. We did find the road and drove the razor down to the big building that is connected to an old mine there in Hamlin Valley and walked through it. I wish I had the pictures and maybe I will add more later when we get them from the camera. It is really neat to walk through buildings from back in the 40's or so and see how it was back then.

The weekend after the fourth was my family reunion. It was also Brian and Jason's birthdays too. It was so nice up Hunington canyon. The weather was almost perfect. It did rain on us a couple times but not enough to put a damper on things. We played lots of card games, ate good treats and wonderful food, went fishing, and found "snake grass" and made whistles. I love being able to see my family and go camping with them. We always have a great time. We just need to do it more cuz we don't get together enough. Below is our yearly family reunion picture. We need to start taking the picture the first day we are there cuz as you can see it was the last day and we are looking so spiffy!

Kyle and I went to Lagoon for the 24th of July. We got up there friday afternoon and stayed until monday. I have to say being there for 2 days is perfect. We stayed at the camp ground and we love it there. All the trees and grass makes it very nice. We spent the first day riding the rides but taking it easy so we didn't hurt Kyle's back too bad. We even went on the Skycoaster ride and I have never screamed that loud or long before! I was so scared when they were pulling us up in the air and when Kyle let the rip cord go. It was alot of fun and I'm not quite sure if I would ever go on it again. I remember it being very scary but not that much but then again I was alot younger when I had been on that ride. The second day we went to Lagoona Beach and had a blast!!! You have to rent a tube cuz it is the only way to have fun there. We can't wait to go again soon!
