In July we went to Redfish Lake for the annual Wood family reunion for 5 days of camping at "The Point" (the best campground on the lake). It is one of our favorite times of the year, full of so many fun activities and memories. We do all kinds of things like boating, boarding, swimming, eating, timed competitive obstacle courses or competitions like our "Wood man competition" where we do a mini triathalon, hiking, eating, minnow catching, snorkeling, fishing (using poles or nets), visiting the lodge several times, going to the hot pots at Sumbeam, visiting the ghost towns and the sawtooth fish hatchery, canoeing (which entails going out on the canoe with as many people as we can cram into the canoe and tipping it over), cliff diving, rope swinging, card playing, programs, s'mores, bike riding, going to the logs and tubing down our very own "Bubble Bath Rapids" (and yes, we have claimed them as our very own), building sand castles, rock climbing, eating, and new this year...boat bailing, which consists of standing on the back of the boat which is going 20mph and just simply bailing off the side of it, an urge I had and Dev & I decided to fu...completely safe!
This year Devin decided it would be fun to snorkel and look for fish then try to catch them with a net. If you look close in this pic he is holding the net ready for all those unsuspecting fish. He, Little T, Trevor P, and Mike Williams (I have to refer to them by their last names since our family insists on marrying people with the same names. 3 Trevors, and 2 Mikes) all did this for a couple hours one day, to no avail, then as soon as they turned the net over to Melissa she caught a fish within 20 minutes of trying...let's just say Devin was a little more determined after that to catch one.
