Family Vacation #3

For Labor Day weekend my mom’s family always goes to Fish Lake. It’s a tradition they’ve been doing since she was little, and we love joining in on it! Everybody eats, goes fishing, plays football, does a little dutch oven cooking, hot-dog roasting, smore-making and LOTS of singing around the campfire. It was great, as always. It’s fun to have everyone together without a lot of distractions. We had some beautiful weather, and some not to beautiful weather to deal with. When it’s a clear sky at night you can see more stars than anywhere else I’ve ever been. It’s amazing how many stars I regularly do not see! But when it storms there, it storms HARD! Justin and I pretty seriously thought we were going to die by lightning strikes the last night we were there. Either that or the wind, rain and hail were going to rip our tent apart and we would be done for. Luckily, everything and everyone survived!
There are two pictures that we took, in a tiny little town called Loa, looking inside a police car...and what exactly is that inside the police car? It is a dummy! But not just any dummy, it's a dummy with a freaky-looking Halloween mask on!! Justin and I drove by it and just couldn't believe our eyes, so we had to turn around and take some pictures. It was hilarious! Who knows, maybe it works for them in this little town!? It didn't convince us to drive slower, but it definately was entertaining!
