Camping with the Larsens

 Dinosaur National Monument just past Vernal

 We were really blessed to make great friends with people in the UofU housing.  The Larsen's are one of those families. They are good people.  Our kids get along well too.

 They moved to the Roosevelt/ Vernal area for work and invited us to camp at the park out there.  We explored the park along with camping for two nights.

 I know I'm not looking at the camera in this one, but look at this face! I could eat him up!

 This wall behind the kids is filled with fossils.

 We also got to climb some cool trees...

 touch fossilized bones...

 walk around swamp...

 make river sand angels...

 skip stones....

 build structures...

 catch (and accidentally kill) creatures...

 for a whole wonderful weekend.

 I'm not a big camper, but the Larsen's know how to do it right.
