Flaming Gorge



My brother, Ryan, invited us to to boating with him at Flaming Gorge. I Thought that I didn't want to go, as we've been away from home for the past couple of weekends. I thought a nice quiet weekend at home would be nice. But on Friday, I was regreting not going. I called Derrick and pouted to him. He called me later and said that we are going. I was so excited. The only problem was Ryan didn't know we were coming. I called a friend, Clint, that was going up there. I told him to get a hold of Ryan and tell him we are coming. He said he would. Ryan was supposed to pick us up at the marina between 7:30 and 8. We got up there late because we had to go to the store (and we ran out of gas in the parking lot). When we got to the marina, Ryan wasn't there. I called Clint and he said he couldn't get a hold of Ryan to let him know we were coming. Clint decided that he would get Wendell to come get us in his boat. Wendell was nice enough to come get us and let us sleep on his boat. We finally met up with Ryan on Saturday morning(it's another long story, so I'll spare you all the details). We spent most of the day on the lake on Ryan's boat. It was a little windy, but really nice. I got to knee board for the first time in years. Derrick also tried it for the first time. You can see the carnage in the pictures. Cage and Megan had fun. Cage has a new girlfriend, Ashlynn. She's adorable. Thanks Ryan and Jen for all of your hospitality. Sorry about the Cuervo.
