We were excited to go to Hot Springs campground because I had a family reunion scheduled there for my family on my Mom's side. Two of my brothers came and also my sister, all from Idaho. We had a good turnout and had a lot of fun. We were really worried because we got there the Tuesday before and it rained constantly for two days. It finally cleared up the morning of the reunion.
This campground is really fun because it has a natural hot springs
swimming pool that you can swim in no matter what the weather. There is also a 9-hole golf course that is very inexpensive for members and their guest. We had a golf scramble that Shay and the other boys organized. It was a lot of fun.

This was the first time in a long time that all of our kids and
grandkids were together. We attempted a family picture. It is certainly a "camping picture," but we are all there. What a group!

I was glad to see my cousin, Scott Robinson (my Mom's first cousin). It had been quite a while since I had seen him.
I was lazy and didn't get my camera out much, so I didn't get many pictures of the other relatives.

But, I did get a picture of my brothers, Frank and Mike Fisher, with their wives, Andy and Janet. They are always a lot of fun to be with. They kept the camp awake part of one night with all of the laughter coming from their trailer!

After the reunion, Shay and Marissa and Emily stayed. We decided that since we are so close to some of our kids and
grandkids, we would take turns taking some of the
grandkids with us. We kept Jill's kids,
Kamber and
Boe, and will keep Shay's daughter, Emily with us for the next week. They had fun burying
Boe in the sand at the playground.

Of course, there is always time for another round of golf for Shay and Grandpa!

Paddle boats are a new addition to the Hot Springs campground. Shay was out with the kids for about 10 minutes and then I took over. Marissa, Emily,
Boe,
Kamber, and I paddled around for the rest of the hour. I am sure my legs will remind me tomorrow than I am not as young I used to be!

Emily brought along her "make up" and she decided to practice on
Kamber. I am not sure
Kamber's mom would approve, but they had fun!

Grandpa is always excited to fish with the
grandkids! This little fishing pond hadn't been fished in for about two years before our reunion

, but a couple of my nephews caught some good-sized bass during the reunion. Terry was hopeful that the
grandkids would do the same.

But, the only thing caught was an ugly yellow catfish by Emily. The amazing thing was that we got her to touch it afterwards!
