All in a day's work

Quent had to go to Rich County today to stock fish in Laketown Reservoir and asked if I wanted to ride along. So I grabbed my camera, prepared to get car sick and off we went.

The most exciting part of the drive to and from the Bear Lake Valley? We finally saw a moose. Yes you heard me right, WE SAW A MOOSE, and I got a picture (in focus). But I jump ahead of myself...

We drove up to Bear Lake and then on to Laketown to stock the reservoir, a very small reservoir, about the size of two Olympic sized swimming pools really.

I took some pictures of Quent in action and then on the way back to Bear Lake we passed a cute one-room school house and other random buildings. I was just glad I grabbed the camera.

Before heading back up Logan Canyon we stopped at Le Beau's and had a raspberry shake, you didn't think we'd drive to Bear Lake without getting a famous Raspberry shake did you?

On the way back down is when I spotted the moose. I actually thought it was a horse, I said to Quent -- "there's a horse" and he said nope, I think it's a moose. Of course by then he was stopping because he knows how long I've been looking for a moose. Way too long to mention.

After we saw the moose we took a side trip and went to check out the snow levels up at Tony Grove, needless to say, we didn't make it up to the top before we were on icy, snow-packed roads. after spinning the tires and putting it four-wheel drive we decided that we didn't need to get clear to the lake and turned around and headed for home.

All-in-all a great drive up to Bear Lake and back and I didn't even get car sick!

It's a moose, it's really a moose!
