PLEASE PRAY: For Safety & Good Weather
We now thank Heavenly Father for the Good Weather
we had. The Rain on Saturday helped us appreciate
the good weather the rest of the time.
PLEASE BRING: WOOD FOR CAMPFIRES
Thanks for all of you who brought wood and
came to the campfire sing-a-longs. It was fun
to be able to have a campfire each night.
I loved the stories and memories you shared.
It was nice to have enough wood.
We even had a lot left over.
Float Tubes, rafts, life jackets (if you want to try the San Rafael River)
We didn't realize that at this time of year there is no running water in the San Rafael.
Walkie Talkies(Batteries): Channel 11 code 21 (Parents ONLY Channel)
This worked well for our family. If at least one person in Each family was
assigned to keep a walkie talkie on, then we could alert them when we need
to change the schedule because of rain OR bring the eggs to be hidden, etc.
Horse Shoes & other outdoor games
Sorry the weather didn't cooperate so that we had more time to play games on Saturday. The ones we played seemed to be fun... we just didn't have enough break in the weather to play very long. For those of you who
played the games, which was your favorite?
Indoor table games – (just in case)
We played Nertz, Jenga, scrabble, etc. during the cold weather. What games did your family play?
GRANDMOTHERS: PLEASE BRING 6 EASTER EGGS STUFFED WITH TREATS FOR EACH OF YOUR GRANCHILDREN. $$$ TO GIVE THEM
IF THEY FIND EGGS WITH $$$ ON THEM.
I think we may have left a lot of the Easter eggs out there. If you are driving by and want to search, it might be fun to see if we can find any
that are still hiding.
MOTHERS: PLEASE BRING PRIZES enough for the Children in your FAMILY - AGES 0-17 for games on Saturday. Everyone who participates gets a prize. We had lots of prizes left over... We could have had a lot more
participation.... If we can start the EEHunt at 10:00 next year, we could play games until lunch time and then everyone could do their own thing in the afternoon. (depending on the weather)
Mothers: Bring treats for CAMPFIRES (Thurs. Christmas treat, Fri, Sat, Sun. campfire treats) smores seemed to win out as the most popular!!!

DID YOU ALL GO AND SEE THE COLD WATER
GYSER THAT WAS SOUTH EAST OF GREEN RIVER?
It was pretty amazing with beautiful mineral
covered terraces that cascaded down to the
Green River. When the water bubbled up and
spilled over the terraces it was really beautiful.
We didn't ever see it shoot up, but what we saw
was amazing.
WHERE DID YOU GO AND WHAT DID YOU SEE THAT YOU LIKED?
Will and his family went down to Dead Horse
Point and down to Canyon Lands overlook.
Then they drove down into canyonlands by the River,
and back to Moab via the potash road.
I guess it was spectacular. Please post any
pictures you took... Especially for those who
were unable to attend this year.
