AUGUST 11—We drove up American Fork campground to Granite Flats. We found a campsite and set up our tent. We saw squirrels and chipmunks near our camp and hiked many trails by camp. The girls called it “adventuring.” We found snail shells, blueberries, and trees. I brought two small fishing poles and went with Jon, Madelynn, and Aurianna fishing at the reservoir. We drove Jon’s new red truck and listened to John Denver. Being in the outdoors gives me great memories of my childhood. We ate Italian chicken, hot dogs, corn on the cob and peach cobbler for dinner. Everything tastes better by a campfire made with logs from our old pine tree. Madelynn tried to catch butterflies, but finally captured a moth and put it in a bottle. Madelynn hiked to the top of the mountain so she could draw the sunset. The girls slept in the trailer and the boys slept in the tent. Aurianna was my bunk mate. She tossed around, but we still managed to have a good sleep. I’m a kid at heart in the woods.
