Wednesday, July 20 – We woke up early at 5:00 a.m. and headed to the cabin on Monroe mountain. Everyone was surprised to see us at 10:30 in the morning. I think we were probably the first ones to ever make it to the cabin at a decent time. Let alone before noon. Growing up we were lucky to make it to the cabin by midnight. Those that were at the cabin were Mom & Dad, Shanna and her kids, Jarom & Dakota, Spencer, Dylan, cousin Melvin and a few of his grandkids. Our family pitched tents up on the hill and had our own little camp. Wednesday we just hung around and visited. Thursday after breakfast we went to Barney lake and the boys fished while we watched and entertained kids on the bank. The boys caught a few pretty decent fish. Thursday night after dinner Eric and I went for a little drive to see if we could see some elk. We saw a couple different groups of cows and calves, but no bulls. Kind of disappointing since a few years ago you could drive around and see a ton of really nice bulls. Friday we got up, ate breakfast, and then packed up camp. It was a quick trip, but nice to go to the cabin. We left about noon. Just as we were entering Richfield from coming off the mountain we got in an accident. Eric wasn’t able to stop when a car suddenly stopped at a stop light. The other vehicle driver made the comment that the light went funny and all of sudden changed red. He was able to stop, but in our big truck we just couldn’t stop. There was quite a bit of damage to both vehicles, but we were all safe and we were grateful for that. We were still able to drive home so that was nice. Eric was very devastated to wreck his new truck (for us). But what do you do.
