Derek (left) and some other boys, he is thrilled to be playing in the fire.
Two weekends ago (May 15-16) Curtis took Dax and Derek on the Father's and Sons outing up near Payson. It seemed like a really good idea at first, but when it came time to go, Curtis wasn't so sure he wanted to go camping up in the cold mountains. They went and had a good time. A little chilly. Derek loved the campfire, and of course, they came home with a stick that is also used as a light saber, sword, gun, and whatever other weapon they can think of. They came home F*I*L*T*H*Y. Our tent, which wasn't much of a tent, to begin with, died. I guess the wind blew it apart during the night. Now they have been on an official campout beyond our backyard. Curtis only needs to go one more time in about 4 years so Trey can have a turn.
There was a fish hatchery nearby so they stopped by there on the way out. There is a man in our ward who is a hobby photographer. He takes pictures at all the activities. He took these pictures and did a great job. He took nice pictures of each Dad with his boys.

I am proud of Curtis! Camping is a lot like cooking...equipment does make the difference....a good tent...or even Mr. Wild and Wooly Jess pulled up a little beat p camp trailer...they slept in beds...so my advice...don't by a tent...rent a trailer for one weekend...that way you don't have to store it, insure it or clean it!! One of the dads in our ward...who is not a camper..took his boys and they slept in his van...he got the driver's seat...that would be worse than the hard ground if you ask me...even with critters!
