Pat's wild adventure!
Yesterday we wanted to go check out a salamander pond up Mink Creek. So off we go the weather was great and no rain. Of course Pat sees a mud puddle and Oakley is in the back saying "go through it Dad!" and as fast as that Pat hits the gas and off we go, as soon as we hit the water we stop. Not surprising since it has been raining everyday for the last 15 days or so. We can't even move the Jeep is totally high centered. When Pat gets out the water goes up pat his knees. Thank goodness for cell phones. We couldn't get a signal so walked a bit and got ahold of Pat's mom and dad, and they were on their way. Cedar and I started walking back to the main road to show Grandpa and Grandma where we were and Pat and Oakley, with the help of a very nice guy on a four wheeler stayed back and tried to get out. I took pics of these butterflies on the road, Cedar and I had a beautiful walk and saw butterflies and a million ground squirrels. We ended up walking past some more campsites and a couple of guys heard about the fun in the mud and headed up on their 4 wheelers to help. Grandma and Grandpa picked up Cedar and I and by the time we got back to the Jeep the 4 wheelers had pulled it out. What a fun day.
