Bruneau Sand Dunes
















This past Friday and Saturday we went on an overnight campout with the Jacksons to the Bruneau Sand Dunes down by Mountain Home. It is a good to go camping there early in the season because it can get very hot during the summer. Benji and I arrived there around 5:00 pm Friday and the Jacksons arrived at 8:00. It was in the 90s and we thought it would be to hot to enjoy being there and hiking tomorrow. We had hamburgers and relaxed around the campfire eating s'mores. Saturday started out being a little cooler and the temperature stayed in the high 80's. We went hiking on the dunes in the morning and had a great time. Benji and I walked up some of the smaller dunes and part way up the larger one. The Jacksons made it all the way to the top and AJ was able to fly his kite from the top. They were hot and tired when the got down from the dune. The boys then played in the lake and we had a picnic in the shade of the trees. We then went back to camp and packed up then headed for home. We were glad that we went and had a great time.

It looks like you had so much fun! I am sad I wasn't there to climb the dunes with you, but I am extremely sad that I missed seeing mom's matress hat!
