Camping Adventure!

Friday night Malone and I got to go camping with a few friends of ours from our ward! Malone had taken off work Saturday so we could go. Unfortunately for us all, the weather was looking pretty bleak before we left. There was a big rain storm coming that night. Despite the predicted nasty weather, Emily, Jared, Kishel, David, Malone and I all decided to go anyway. After Malone and I got off work around 6 or so, we packed up, picked up our friends, and were off! We had decided to go to a place Malone knew about in Island Park. We got there around 7:30 or so and were welcomed by lots and lots of, you guessed it, mosquitos. But luckily the area we were in there were no other people around so we had it all to ourselves! As we set up camp, we could see the dark clouds approaching from the south. It was a little nerve wracking because it didn't look good and we didn't want to get drenched. We managed to set up camp, eat dinner, and even cook some smores before it started raining. We covered our wood and all of us climbed into me and Malone's big-ol-tent. We played games for a couple hours while it sprinkled rain outside. We somehow managed to keep dry that night with only a few light showers; no wind, no storm, nothing! The next morning we cooked up some breakfast and packed up camp. About the time we were packed up, it started to rain again. Only this time it started to hail! So we decided to just go home. Even though we only got to stay overnight, we all had a wonderful time together! I hope that we can do it again sometime, only maybe next time we won't get wet!
