IPSA Lineman Rodeo
 I love the Lineman Rodeo, so much Fun to watch!


 Murray Power had a Team entered,  this is their cart with all the equipment on it.


 It was held at the Lehi Rodeo Grounds in Lehi.


Two of Murray Cities Lineman took second place in the Obstacle Course,  which is Awesome!   It was nice to have front row seats,  and get a free lunch thrown in.  Next year will be in Logan.

ATV Ride up Six Mile
 Erin is always so good to wear her Helmut and Goggles.

 Love to take pictures whenever we go for a ride,  the scenery is alway so beautiful.

 They got a little bit a head of me, when I stopped to take pictures.

 Made it all the way to Ferron Lake.

 Where we stopped for some Lunch.  And a much needed "fanny" break.  

Found these cute "dust keeper outers" from the SA company,  which do an awesome job keeping the dirt out of my mouth and nose!  Just love to go camping and 4 wheeling!

A River Run with the Truckee River Raft Co.

An Awesome River Run  (Float) on the Truckee River!  We did this while we were over in Squaw Valley for the UAMPS conference.

 Was so much fun, for all of us to float down the Truckee River. We only had a couple of spots where it was a bit of a White Knuckle experience.  They said "class 1 rapids", it felt more like class 3 !!!

 The Scenery was so pretty.  And it was a lot of Fun!  It took us about 3 hours to get to the take out point.  


 Erin was too cute at helping with paddling,  She kept telling us "I do It"  I kept thinking she would lose the paddle,  but she never did.    In fact I'm the one that lost it.  And one of us (Not Me)  swam after it.


 Most of the river you could stand in and it was only waist deep  but we still put a life jacket on Erin.  We also got High Centered a couple of times,  causing one of us (Not Me) to get out and give us a push.


The Best part is  the Staff was so nice in helping us with Erin by getting  Erin In the Raft in the Beginning and out at the End.  I would totally recommend this rafting company to anyone traveling to Squaw Valley and wanting to take a River Run (Float)

Squaw Valley, California

 Was Awesome,  I loved it.


 The Olympic Village is where we stayed.   


They had a band almost every day, and night that played in the Events Plaza.  Getting Erin pass this was a trick,  most times we just sat and listened till they went on a break,  and we told her they were done.


We saw a very cute chipmunk eating a pinecone.  Most pine cones were as big as pineapples.


  Finally came across a Bear!!   who knew it was on a golf course,  we were golfing on, hole 7 to be exact,  and she had 3 cubs with her so needless to say I did not get to close.


We rode the Tram up to Base camp,  to have dinner.


Drove over to Lake Tahoe, which is huge,  and was very busy with boats and tourists.


And of course I bought a souvenir,  A hand woven rug.  Was a Great Trip!  Also did a River Run (Float)  and drove down to Yosemite National Park.  Pictures to follow when I get them all downloaded.
