Mesa Falls

I have been trying to think of something I could post on this thing before everybody gives up on me and deletes my blog address out of their computer! I don't take pictures very often....ever, and I update my blog even less than that, but luckily I live with a sister takes pictures, so I am going to just borrow a few from her collection. Thanks Mel! Here is the story of our Mesa Falls Adventure!


For Memorial Day, Mel and I went with some friends from our ward to Mesa Falls. I am slightly embarrassed to say that I had never been there before and I have lived near them all of my life. But there's always a first for everything! We began our journey by stopping to feed the fish at Warm River. I love this simple pleasure! And throwing piece after piece of broken-up bread into the water for the giant fish to eat never gets old!

Here is the ward crew. We have a wonderful college ward and do lots of fun activities together!

The Upper Falls. These waterfalls are gorgeous! The next time you read in the scriptures about God's majestic creations, think Mesa Falls. They are incredible!

Mel and I did have a little problem when we ran into Mama Bear......

...but don't worry! We put our heads together and came up with a plan to conquer that great beast.

Seriously, who did that bear think she was, messing with us?
What a wonderful trip it was! I am so glad that we got to go.
(And just in case you were worried, the bear wasn't real. Well, I guess it was real at one time, but this bear was dead, stuffed, and hung on the wall. Not my idea of home decor!)
