Every year in August, the Kirton clan goes up to Pinedale, WY. They have been going ever since TJ's dad was a kid. It the biggest tradition they have. I must say, the first year I went, the thought of camping for 7-10 days was crazy and the first time was a bit long- the longest I had ever been camping was 5 days so 10 days was double what I was used to! But I come to love it and every year, the time goes by faster. I make sure I have a great book and lots of sunscreen.
A few images from the week:
 |
| One of my favorite things to do is go fishing! That's the majority of what we do in Pinedale. |
 |
| Our fearless captain! |
 |
| One time, our boat broke down. Luckily, some cousins were still out boating and were able to tow us back into shore. |
 |
| He's GOT one! |
 |
| This is what I do sometimes while I'm waiting for a fish... |
 |
| And this... The fish finder. This contraption tells us how deep the water is and then when a fish swims by, it pops up on the screen. We always hope for a big fish to pop up! |
 |
| Nothing beats sunsets on the lake |
 |
| My favorite view |
 |
| Then we hit the water in the morning during feeding time |
 |
| Spike Ball- the game of the week. Tournaments upon tournaments |
We leave the week tired, sunburned and refreshed. Til next year Pinedale!
