Camping in Kilgore

Well, this weekend we went camping in Kilgore, ID. It was so beautiful and we could not have asked for better weather. We went fishing and four-wheeling. It was a blast. We caught a bunch of fish. We threw most of them back and kept two because they would not have made it if we had sent the back. I was very adamant about that. I caught 3 fish sent 2 back and kept 1. I, with the help of Mark, gutted my own fish. Mark gave me and Ethan a tutorial and I proceeded to gut my fish. It was not at all what I thought it was going to be. I thought it was going to be really smelly, but it really was not that bad. It took me back to high school anatomy. We dissected huge earth warms that if you cut too deep it just looked like and bunch of brown mush, but if you just got the skin off you could see everything. It was really neat.








We took Mac (our dog)with us and he loved it. He went on four wheeler rides with us and didn't want to get off when we got back to camp. He loves the wind blowing in his face. Paul and I enjoy watching the wind blow in his face, cause it causes his ears to stick straight up and his eyes get really big. It's pretty funny.



We really love going up there and just enjoy the outdoors with family. We had a blast. It was a little short but worth it. Can't wait for the next camping trip.
