Fishin' in the Fall

Pine View Dam
With two cameras, gorgeous light/color, and happy cousins, there were so many pictures taken on our family adventure yesterday, that I'm breaking it up into a few posts.  John and I decided to go fishing with our families.  Sadly, not everyone could come.  (We hoped James would be there, but a Chemistry test sorta got in the way.)  Utah has some beautiful autumn weather.  So, we got out in it.

Sillouetted against water

This lake is just too tempting

Roots exposed and leafy color

The sun broke through the rain clouds and the children ached for water

Rebecca takes a break from photography and rock collecting

I think the boys had a little competition about who could chuck the biggest rock.

Mom captured some excellent reflecting pics.  She also insisted that Sam keep his undies on, but, I must say that "whitey tighties" don't make for much coverage.

Kohyn loving the water

After having to wade out far enough to get her own pants wet, Rebecca plays keep away with Sam-man and the soccer ball.

Uncle John teaches Gabriella how to cast a fishing line.

Kohyn gets some help too.

The only wake in the water... no boats in autumn.  SWEET!!

I think he thinks it's getting cold.

Michelle taking in some sun.

Samuel's turn.

The fisherman


 This was only one phase of our journey together.  We had chosen a spot with outhouses that turned out locked.  (Oh, the great outdoors!!)  Had planned on rainy weather and hadn't brought towels with us, etc.  So, we only stayed for a little while.  But the views were amazing and so was the family time.
