"Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea, even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh and anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God." Ether 12:4

Washington Lake, Uinta National Forest

We had the fun opportunity to go to Washington Lake in the Uinta Mountains this past weekend. It has been a favorite family camping spot for the last 12 years or so. We've been going there since before the campground was even there!

We had fantastic weather which has not always been the case. We reminisced about all the fun adventures we had from salamander hunting, to hiking, fishing, biking, tree cutting, bear calling, and many more.
Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Loser for their use of the motorhome. It made for comfortable accomodations and even Isaac finally had a great nights sleep in it. We played really hard to wear him out so he would sleep. Dad, Alex, Isaac and Adam went canoeing and fishing and caught some fish on Friday. We had a great fireside that night and talked to Dad about some important things we've been meaning to do for a while. On Sat., Rachel and Nicole went out in the canoe and caught some fish too. We did some hiking around the provo river falls and really just enjoyed the beauty of the mountains.
What a beautiful place we live in!

You are a remarkable example of what families should be... Thanks for sharing this journey with us.
It looks like you have been spending time in places that I love too.. our mountains are the greatest on earth, and to have your family with you there, makes it complete. Thanks Richard and Family for that demonstration of love and joy.

Just glanced over the 2008 blogs looking for reference to Cameron and realized the blessings pouring over your family. You have truly paid the price for the bonus round but what a blessing to your family and all those who love you so much. Praying for you to have peace and comfort. Love you

Gosh, haven't checked in for awhile. We are thrilled that you are able to participate in such great family activities. We all should capitalize on every opportunity we can. Thanks for reminding me of that. We just never know what is around the corner for any of us.
Hugs & Kisses, Tracy & Jill
