We made it back and had a fun time. It was so pretty there. Oliver said only heaven would be prettier. It was a long drive but everyone did good. We had planned to go to poison canyon but the road was too bad for the van. I turned around and got stuck. Casey was digging out the van and hurt his finger, it got slammed between two rocks. It was pretty bad. We got out and tried another road which was a lot better. You start at the top of the canyon and hike to the bottom. We got a little ways down and decided to camp there for the night. It was pretty and the kids had fun exploring. They have rock stacks that are called cairn but it sounds like Karen's. The next day we tried to find a way down but it was too hard for the kids. We we setup for lunch and just explored all afternoon. We hiked out to the car and tried to find a new spot. Their were these springs but the road was bad. We stopped at a old log cabin and then found a place to camp. The next day on Monday we found a hike called Angels point. We hiked down to the river. Ruth hates the sand in her sandals and there were thorns so she lost it. Tony's feet were sore also but we made it. The river was so fun. It is the dirty devil river. We walked up and down it and found some slot canyons. We just played there all day. We were thinking of camping in then slot canyon but it was so windy. Tony rushed by Ruth when were getting out and she fell in the mud. the boys were cover in mud also just from playing. We didn't have a change of clothes besides pj's and it was supposed to get cold so we decided to hike out. Then it was so windy at the van we decided to come home. It was like 9 at night. We picked up some hamburgers and drove home. The kids were so good about it and did an amazing job backpacking. They did the best if we backpacked a bit and then explored without their packs. We did Easter baskets this morning and that was fun. Here is a picture overload. Love you guys
Love
