Camping and horse rides

This is what I woke up to in the morning, in our tent
Our awesome cobbler made from fresh blackberries from California

Buck cooking his bread on a stick
Trina cooking our awesome breakfast

Ha ha so our tent poles are broke, but thanks to Buck's redneck jimmy-rig job, it's all taped back together. Can you see how it bends? Look at the left of the picture

The horse pictured above is the one I rode. His name is Eclipse



This last weekend, our awesome friends Trina and Rory invited us to go camping with them, and on a horse ride. We were so stoked because A) we haven't been camping at all this summer, and B) (the best one) we don't have any horses so it was so cool of them to let us ride theirs. We went to the Blackhawk campground in Mt. Nebo. When we got there we went on a short horse ride, and I ended up breaking the saddle that I was on, which sucked, but they were really cool about it. Then we came back and cooked our tin foil dinners in the fire, which took forever but they were awesome. Then we hung out at the fire and annoyed the neighbors because they went to bed at a normal hour. We then pitched our tents and went to bed. Woke up bright and early and made an awesome breakfast, and went on like a 3 ish hour ride. The view was awesome, I unfortunately forgot my camera :( you'll just have to take my word for it.
We seriously had so much fun, thank you so much Rory and Trina for asking us and for taking us on your horses. You guys are so fun to hang out with, and so awesome to take us on a ride on your horses. I hope we can get together again soon!
