Mueller Park Canyon

Ever since taking Johnny camping, I'd really wanted to do a campfire with him. I'd tried to arrange it a few times, but everybody always had things going on. Finally, a few weekends ago I asked, or more like mentioned to, my mom if she was interested in going up the canyon, and she said Yes! I was so excited! And my Dad was totally willing to come, too! While my parents threw some stuff together, I ran to the store for marshmellows. Then we headed up to Mueller Park Canyon, which is just here in Bountiful.

My Dad, the All-Knowing Scout Leader Extraordinaire, made the campfire. I tried to help so that I felt useful. Mom took Johnny down to the stream to throw rocks and explore. The weather was perfect and cool, and we had a fun party of people at the campfire next to us who were dancing to hits from the 50s - which was awesome!

The hot dogs were a hit, but Johnny didn't really like the marshmellows. I think he found them too sticky. But it was funny watching him make a mess!

I am so glad I have such fun parents who are willing to support my crazy, last-minute antics. I love you guys!!
