Did someone order snow?

Memorial Day always means camping with my family.  We've camped all over the state of Utah and this year the camping trip was at the Box Elder Campground, in Mantua (convenient for me).  We had a great time Friday night fixing dinner, setting up camp and hanging out around the camp fire.  Saturday we went fishing, four-wheeling, and hung out at camp.  Saturday night we made dutch oven pizzas, it was really fun to see all the dutch ovens all lined up.  We had dutch oven cobbler to top off Saturday night.  The rain started Saturday night about 9 p.m. and didn't stop.

Unfortunately we woke up to snow Sunday morning and it really packed a punch, there was so much water in an already saturated ground that the mud was swishy and too messy to continue camping.  We broke camp Sunday morning instead of Monday morning.

Grandma was in town for the camping trip and she stayed at my house instead of a tent over at the campground.  Everyone went home Sunday afternoon, my parents stayed at my house with grandma.  My parents went home Monday night.   It was a fun weekend despite the snow.
