Panguitch Balloon Festival

I don't know who heard about it, but the message went through camp that we were heading to a morning Balloon Festival in Panguitch.  This was a two-day affair, but Charity and kids who didn't go the first doy missed it the second as there was too much wind.  When we got there there were no balloons in the air, and it looked like there were maybe 20 balloons.  However more kept arriving and in the end it seemed there were at least 100.  Out favorites were Smoky Bear and an owl.  

Vacation Days 6-8: Family Camping Panguitch Lake

Mark and Lizzy sponsored our camp out and they wanted to take advantage of Cedar Breaks National Monument so we camped close at Panguitch Lake.  Our campsite was above the lake.  We visited Cedar Breaks, we played on the lake, (it was really windy so we didn't lets gets go without an adult), we went to Panguitch for a balloon festival.  Lots of camp games and activities, small hikes close to camp.  Cousins had a chance to interact which was very positive.  Everyone was there except for Miranda who had just started a new job.  One last confession, it was cold at night the first couple days but then warmed up some the third night.
