We went to Warm River on Saturday with Jenny,
Beaner and their two children. We all had a really good time. Here is a picture of our family in Warm River, which really isn't that warm at all, but gets its name because it is spring water and never freezes. This is also when I got my sunburn. Darn low necked maternity shirt.
Ben had to be held a lot of the time in the water, but finally decided to test it out. And loved it.
The kids had a great time playing in the water, and found slimy rocks, snails, and slugs which were actually leeches, but I didn't want to ruin the fun. So they were called slugs and I discreetly checked everyone to make sure no one took home a new "friend".
Four wheeling. The kids couldn't get enough of this. This is Nadia and Dad getting ready to head out. We took a very well groomed trail that is actually the remains of an old railroad bed between Yellowstone, the first ski resort in Idaho (now closed), and Idaho Falls. The dads later went on another trail that was not quite so kid friendly by themselves, and I am told that Cliff is still quite limber and graceful in his old age. I'll have to check it out sometime. ;)
Yes, Brandon looks dazed and delirious from all the fun and excitement. I wish I could show you pics of feeding the fish, but it never works. There is a little bridge area where you are not allowed to disturb the fish in any way. The trout that live here are enormous, and if you throw in a slice of bread, you understand what the phrase "feeding frenzy" means. Maybe you will have to visit and see for yourselves how beautiful and fun it is. We will definitely be going again next summer, and hopefully more than once. Warm River makes the Idaho winters worth it!
