Camping trip 2011

This weekend we had an amazing camping trip. We left on Friday for Lehman Caves. It is in Baker Nevada. About a 6 hour drive from our house. They have the best camp sites and it is truly my favorite place to go camping. When we arrived it was raining in the town, but when we got up to our site, (15 minutes up the mountain), it had already passed. So we took a few moments, found the PERFECT site, and set up camp. We were right next to the creek and very secluded. It was wonderful. It was off and on rain. In fact on the second day, we spent a few hours in the tent giggling, cuddling and having tickle wars. When the rain stopped, the kids went over to the creek and caught 2 trout with their bare hands! We cooked them up on the BBQ and Gerry and KC ate them and said they were the best they had ever had. Then on Sunday morning we left that campsite and drove down to Eagle Valley for some fishing. It started out raining so we were the only ones there. Gerry caught 2 trout there and after about 5 hours we got ahold of his cousin Kelley and drove to Ely. There we stayed at Uncle Tommy's cabin and then in the morning, Kelley took us to his "secret" fishing hole. I think it's called Ippitah. It is just a small little lake where the trout were jumping all over the place! Noah caught the first fish by the fin! Then He caught another, Jordan caught one, Gerry and Kelley caught the last ones. KC, Sherri (another cousin) and I didn't get any fish THIS TIME! ;) Then we drove home through Tonopah and stopped to look in the haunted hotel in Goldfield, and candy shop in Beatty at the candy store. It was such a great weekend, we didn't want it to end! I took so many pictures I had to do more than one slide show!
