Flaming Gorge and the missing camera

Last weekend we took a mini vacation and headed to Flaming Gorge for 6 days. I was so excited to take tons of pictures and post them because it is so pretty up there! So we left on Thursday and with all the stops along the way didn't get there till about 8, so the sun is going down and we are trying to launch the boat and get the trailer set up and some how my camera became missing...... I was totally freaking out! I tried to not let it ruin the trip and we still had the video camera but in the back of my mind the whole trip all I could think about was what happened to it, where it fell out, and how upset my husband was going to be, since he just gave it to me for christmas! The weather could have been a little better while we were there but it was still a very fun and relaxing trip. The wind storms up there are so wild! On monday we woke up to so much wind it was hard to open our eyes because they would fill with dust so fast! so we decided to be brave and head out on the water hopeing to find a canyon or somewhere with no wind... we did find a little cove right in the heart of the canyon and it was amazing! the sun came out, there was no wind, Chris was even able to ski for the first time since Thursday! After spending most of the day in this little cove we decided to head back to camp thinking that maybe the wind had stopped. we got back and the wind was worse than in the morning! so we packed up and decided to head home 1 day early.... we got the boat out of the water and I went to get the covers out of the truck and guess what was under the covers .... MY CAMERA! I was so happy it wasn't lost, or broken and relieved to find it, but then i was so bummed that it was there the whole trip and I didn't get any pictures! Guess there is always next year! well the next thing to look forward to is our trip to Lake Yuba over the 24th weekend... i will make sure and take pictures there so I have something to post. it is so much funner to read and write post with pictures!
