On the Move


The High Uintah Mountain range in eastern Utah is a camper's paradise. Our latest getaway took us to Duchesne Tunnel, a primitive campground known to the die hards who came equipped for all the joys of outdoors. Situated on the Mirror Lake Highway, this camp area runs parallel to the Provo River. Here the river is shallow and tame, unlike the deeper rapids that run through the Provo Canyon section of the river.

Our Molly learned how to fetch in water during this trip. She just barely learned about swimming in a river in July, and already she's a water retriever. We're all quite proud of our "Irish Retriever."

We joined several other families for the weekend, and enjoyed mixing and matching food items. The dutch oven potatoes were heavenly. I prepared a dutch oven peach cobbler, made from the first harvest of peaches from our young tree. The cobbler was a huge hit. Where are the pictures? you keep asking. I know, I need to upload them onto this site. But with so little time and so many places to go.....
