We went four wheeling and the boys decided they were going to get to the end of this trail no matter what. This huge log had fallen, blocking the whole trail. They hooked up the winch on the front of Kary's bike and tried to pull it off the road. It moved a little and then got stuck. Next they broke off all the branches, lined everyone up on both sides,and lifted....
Amazingly they got the log far enough off the trail to drive around it. There was a stream that wound back and forth across the trail, that we were going through nice and slow. We didn't want to be covered in water and dirt. (all except Matthew) Matthew would wait until everyone else had gone through the water, get a running start, and make a big splash. He soaked him and Tyler from head to foot. I didn't get a picture of it but you could hear the laughter for miles.
About a two miles up the trail they found another log over the road, this time it was lodged and no way to push it anywhere. They broke all the brances off, and drove underneath ther log. Kary's bike is the biggest, so he went first to see if he could fit. He was leaning over pretty far, but he made it. I got pictures of the rest of the crew going under. (I walked, thought it would be safer)
After all of this, we made it about 200 feet from the end of the trail. Right at the end 3 trees had fallen crossing each other and we couldn't go any farther. The boys had fun, and they got to go through all the fun obsticles again on the way back.
As you can see we have been spending a lot of time on the go. The boys have been camping so many times in the past month I think they are always this dirty. (and as you can see from the picture it has really helped with the brotherly love) Tyler just finished a week of scout camp. Craig and Matthew have been on 4 more camping trips. They went camping for super activity this weekend. All of them have been having a great summer.
