Spring Break 2017 was pretty epic. We did the traditional sand dunes and Menchies trip. We spent time at the library and then rode the carousel downtown. Wednesday we packed up and headed to Cathedral Gorge State Park in NV. It was AWESOME! The campgrounds were relatively empty...our kids were the only ones in sight. Jocelyn and Creed could "mountain bike" on the gravel road. Cami and Taryn had a stash of books to read. There were great hikes with lots of pretty rocks to pick up and carry...There were awesome cave tunnels to explore too....just watch out for birds and big beehives...The stars at night were amazing and Cami taught us about light pollution. After two nights everyone could find the little dipper, big dipper, and O'Ryan. We also took a day trip to other state parks within driving distance, Kirchow Ryan and Rainbow Canyon. In Rainbow Canyon we saw the longest train that totally whistled for Creed as it passed him waiving. We ate lots of smore's and everyone slept really good. It was so fun to explore our own "backyard" and just spend time with each other.
