Wyoming Trip






We went to Starvalley, Wyoming on August 24th til August 27th. We stayed at my dad's property in our in-laws motorhome. We had so much fun while we were there. We got to ride the 4 wheelers, go swimming, and went to Jackson Hole. While we were there my brother-in-law turned us on to Geocaching. It is like a treasure hunt that you do with a hand held GPS. You look them up on the web for the area you are at. It then gives you the coordinates for different locations of geocaches. Then you can go out and search for the geocache. When you find one there is a log book inside for you to sign and all kinds of different stuff. You can take anything you want out of the box, but you have to replace it with something else. There are also trackable items that you don't keep but you take and move them to a different geocache. You can then watch these items and see where they go. Our kids had so much fun, it was a great new experience. We looked them up on the web for our area and there are a bunch within a 20 mile radius of our house. So now we have a new activity to do when Logan is off track.




While we were at Starvalley we went over to Freedom, Idaho, which is right on the boarder. They have a farm of elk there that you can feed with your kids which was really neat. We also went to the old cemetary there which was cool to see all the old headstones. It was such a great escape to go and getaway for a few days. It was hard to come home, I wish we would have had a few more days to spend there.
