Webster's Dam

Michelle and I went to Rigby Lake with 8 kids and my Mom and sister met up with us for part of it to have a picnic. I wish I had brought my camera for that because it is very rare to have most of the grandkids together especially at a fun place like Rigby Lake. The kids stayed busy for several hours until we forced them to go home. I am a fan of Rigby Lake because it keeps them all so entertained and you don't have to do anything but watch them have fun. Scott had gone with my Dad for the day up to the Moody area to check on cows. The walkie talkie he carried on his horse with him ended up getting lost so we felt responsible to try to go find the thing. (these are big industrial walkie talkies that run $250 a piece) Scott loaded up a few four wheelers and my little brother Logan and we headed to Moody in search of the walkie talkie. We were successful and found it (thank heavens!) so then we decided we would go to Webster's Dam since it was in the general area. To get there you must climb steep terain and go down steep terain. At some points we got off and hiked instead of risking the roll down the hill. I realized it is not easy to hike with a 32 week belly but it was nice to get some exercise in for once. When you get to the bottom there is a few great waterfalls to enjoy so it was worth all the hassle. It was just fun to spend time as a family out in nature. The best part is that Scott even gave up a night of softball so we could all be together. He lives for softball night so I am feeling very loved tonight. ;) The smaller waterfall (I forgot to take a picture of the other one) Our little fam hanging out at Webster's Dam The kids getting ready for the ride in search of the walkie talkies Still haven't found it but we would stop every so often to see if we could hear it by talking in to another one. This is how we ended up finding it otherwise it would still be there. It was hiding in thick brush and such and wouldn't have been easy to spot. Brigham called to ride the "blue one" so Logan had to cart him around with him. Thanks Uncle Loges for the ride!

That looks like such a pretty place! You will have to tell us how to get there so our family can go someday. We are always looking for new places to explore! :)
