Silver Lake Res.

Jarom needed some more hours for his Citizen in the Nation Merit Badge, so we took a picnic up to Silver Lake Resuvior and some garbage bags.  Enjoyed a lunch around this beautiful lake, then took off around the lake to collect trash left by others.  We found so much junk, you wouldn't believe the things we found... it was good to make a difference. 


Some great adventures

Sister power!

Brother bonding


 altogether

this event has significance.  Last year we hiked all the way up to the natural Silver Lake and Ammon chose to strip down to his undies and jumped in off a rock a few feet into the lake.  Remember this is glacial water...stinkin' cold!  This year, I thought I'd remind him about his bravery and see if he'd keep the tradition going.  He DID, he stripped down and got in.  He almost didn't go under, but HE DID!  Wish I could upload the video, it was awesome!  He was so cute!!
