Monday

James was a little jealous of yesterday's early morning fishing trip, so he and Jarrett woke up early to take a trip of their own. James caught his first fish, too! His was a catfish that was big enough to keep. This time, Jarrett brought the camera, here are the proud fishermen.

We packed up and left for Salt Lake City. The drive was nice, lots of flat land with just a few hills. It was hot though, so we did overheat quite a bit.

We stopped about two hours outside of Salt Lake City. The drive to Salt Lake was nine hours and driving the RV is hard. We had also promised James that we would have his catfish for dinner and didn't want to get in to town too late to do that. So we stopped in West Wendover, NV at a KOA. The KOA had the first decent wireless service this entire trip, hence the flurry of posts! It's much easier to post from the computer than from the phone.

We took a quick dip in the KOA pool and then started a fire. We kept the kids up late to watch the stars.

The fish was wonderful, Jarrrett is a great cook. Since we had corn on the cob, we made corn cob dolls.

The kids love these, especially Riley. She made her doll an apron and she and James pretended they had been turned into kids that live in the time of Little House on the Prairie.

Tomorrow it's off to Salt Lake, we want to make it in time to catch a show at the Planetarium.
