Island Park Day 4 Evening - July 25, 2008

In the evening, John & Jill brought Great-Grandpa Curtis up and we had a nice dinner of oven-door casserole. I'm hoping to get all the recipes from the trip and post them, too.

We went out one more time on the boat after dinner. My brother Mark impressed us all with his skiing. He hasn't skiied for about 25 years, but it didn't look like he had forgotten much.

Island Park Trip Day 1 - July 22, 2008

We left for our Island Park trip on Monday, July 21. We spent that night at Grandma & Grandpa's and left the next day for Island Park. The first day we just unpacked and got the boat in the water. It was our night for dinner and we made dutch oven BBQ chicken and cheesy potatoes. Unfortunately, that was the night of the big thunderstorm, so about 15 minutes into cooking the food, the coals were swimming in water. The guys moved the food into the oven and onto the outdoor camp stove. Here they are trying to keep it lit long enough to cook!


While the food was cooking, Stacey decided I needed to do her hair. We used one of those Clairol Frost & Tip things. Here's a lovely photo of her with the cap and bleach on.

It was also Grandpa's birthday (he's 67)! Breelyn made this nice cake for him and we sang happy birthday and had cake. Grandpa was a little surprised at how well we sounded!
