We volunteered for the U of U's Bennion center to build fences surrounding the stream on Antelope Island to help protect it from the biffalo so that it can run down to their troughs below rather than getting trampled into swamp before making it down. It was fun and Nicolle has a mighty hammer swing when it come to driving the long nails to keep the posts in place.
The kids got to ride horses, fly a kite, and their favorite play outside for hours and hours. Johnathan learned that you hold a flashlight to the ground at night when walking, not up to your face like he thought. Colette learned that the bathrooms are farther away when you go camping. Neither one of them wanted to go to sleep at night, they were too excited about the tent, the flashlights, and their new friends (or the possibility of going and playing with more new friends they hadn't met yet).
