Camping and Riding in Kennedy Meadows




























































































We took the family and motorcycles to Kennedy Meadows in the south eastern Sierras this weekend for some fun. We met up with a group of guys from work. We camped at a great dry camp called Mahogony and we could leave for the motorcycle trails right from camp. I ended up riding 42 miles of single track through the woods on Saturday. By the end of the last ride, I was wooped. It was very challenging riding and I only dumped the bike once! Yes, that is a man-purse on the number plate, thanks for asking.........


























We camped in our big tent and the kids had a blast. We were the only ones slumming it in a tent......we decided we need a toyhauler!!! The kids ate all sorts of junk food and loved playing with the two dogs that were there (Bailey and Annie). We made dutch oven cinnamon rolls on Saturday morning and did a big Tri-tip cookout with baked potatos, salad, baked beans, and pie on Saturday evening. We took a nature walk and Landon scaled this rock wall with ease! It was crazy to watch him look for foothold and handholds on the way up. I was right behind him, of course, because he is still kinda clumsy. He thought he conquered the world when he got to the time. It was about 6 feet up......no fear with that little guy. Headed home early sunday morning in time for church.
