Moss Family Trip to Joseph 2009

Day 1

We met up in Cove Fort to have a picnic & then do the tour. It was fun & the furniture was awesome! I wanted to take them all home! We had a great tour guide. We then headed on to Joseph to check out the digs! Jeff, Chanieca, & Joni made a yummy dinner of fettuccine & alfredo & then we went fishing. Little did we know how long or crazy of a drive it would be! Super steep drop offs because of the climb to 13,000 feet elevation but there were some beautiful views & we got to see some elk, deer, & turkeys. We even did get to fish for about an hour!




Day 2

We went to the Fremont Indian Museum & got to go on a little hike to see some Indian art (I don't know how to spell the correct word & spell check didn't understand what I was trying to spell!), watched a little video, & even got to throw some arrows (I don't remember the name). We even climbed down into a pit house which is a hole in the ground that is covered with a roof. We then picnicked by the river & went back to the church to change into our swimsuits for swimming in Richfield. When we got back Dave & Tamara prepared an awesome fun fiesta night! They even took our orders in Spanish with a variety of foods to choose from! Afterwards we played some games like the jumping bean, Mexican hat dance, pinata & limbo. It was a fun day!




Day 3

We decided to tube up the Sevier River, now I say up because it runs north! We found a section of river that was calm & floated. It was fun & relaxing. That night Shawn & Judy made apricot chicken with rice & garlic green beans. Following dinner Judy directed a play for us! It was so cute! With Grandma & Grandpa Moss as King & Queen, the girls as fairies & the boys as royal knights, and Davey as the Jester.



Day 4

Thursday was a fun lazy day. We had outdoor games. Jana had some hula hoop games, dodge ball, & a tennis ball relay. Then we sent the kids down to the park for lunch. They fed the kids in Joseph everyday & let our kids join in! It was really nice not to worry about fixing lunch! Then we set up the water slides & balloons & let them at it! My camera ended up soaking wet & out of commission for a day so I didn't get any pictures that night. Teri, Trent & I did hamburgers on the grill that night with the fixins & root beer floats for dessert. After we went bowling.




Day 5

Our final day! After packing up & taking pictures we headed off to the Redmond Salt Mines. They don't let you do tours anymore so it was a video & sales pitch but we did get to see their robot "Robbie" at work. We even tasted some raw milk which I didn't care for at all! After that we headed back to Richfield to Ideal Dairy for ice cream before we all headed home. All in all a very fun trip!
