Gordon Palisade Reunion...

The Gordon family reunion was at Palisade State Park by Manti. There is a cute little lake that doesn't allow motor boats just paddle boats or kayaks. We brought something borrowed kayaks and paddleboards and had a great time on the lake with family.


On the other side of the lake there was a cool rope swing and rocks for cliff jumping. Julie wanted to swing but didn't want to get wet.


Grant and Jeannie's boys were doing backflips but my family mostly just jumped off and did cannonballs.


Jack caught this cool water snake.


Playing in the sun and the water tires the children out. Mikayla fell asleep in the super hot tent.


Jack fell asleep in a chair at the campground.


There was lots of good food to be had and we taught Maxine how to play pinochle. Merril and Maxine left Wednesday morning at noon in order to get back so they could go to work. Me and the younger kids stayed one more night. We got up the next morning, Thursday, and packed and headed home. I kept losing stuff along the way and had to stop probably four times at the beginning of the journey to get everything secured properly. After that, we did great and was able to just drive the rest of the way home.
