So our best friends, the Lawsons, bought property last October near Kemmerer, WY out in the middle of nowhere and have raved about how beautiful it is for months now, but had yet to invite us to visit.  We finally got the invite.  As we were planning our yearly camping trip…Greg piped up and said that we were going to the cabin for our camping this year.  So off to Wyoming we went…2 1/2 hours of driving through sage brush and nothing you wonder if they are off their rockers, but out of nowhere this oasis pops up and really is breathtaking.  Shocking for WY…a state whose state flower is the sagebrush…j/k! 

 

We spent two night there with no agenda…it was heaven!  Spencer fished in the big pond and caught a fish the first cast out.  We 4wheeled til we were sick of it, going off the jump near the entrance was Spencer’s favorite thing to do.  Even Josey loved 4wheeling and would say, “go wheelin’” and point to the 4wheelers.  We ate too much good food(gourmet for camping) and played games until late into the night! We even made the guys watch Lorna Doone with us.

Chris and I slept in the “tree room” because when you turn the lights out you can see the tips of the pine trees swaying in the breeze and the sky full of glittering stars…so beautiful!  Ari, Spencer and Josey all slept in the same room and it was hilarious to listen to them at night before they went to bed.  Josey would say Ari’s name over and over again until Ari would answer and Spencer and Ari would giggle. I love that they all get along so well together!

Greg and Chris went on a two hour ride up to the ridge and after they came back Melissa and I went for a walk down to the old beaver dam and teepee and took some fun pictures of the two of us.  One of my favorite things was when we would ride the 4 wheelers down the tiny road underneath a canopy of huge pine and aspens there were butterflies that would flit across the road and rest on the wildflowers.  What a relaxing trip and so fun to hang out with our friends in their own little oasis in the middle of nowhere!
