He's off!

I drove Skyler out to Wendover yesterday to begin his weeklong Civil Air Patrol cadet encampment.  He was nervous and excited at the same time he said.  I'll be posting updates all week from the Wing's photo album of the event.  He finishes up the trip Sunday.

We stopped at the I-80 rest stop just outside of town on the Salt Flats for a picture.

Intake.  I didn't even get to say goodbye or give him a hug.  It was just "get in line"!

Great Salt Lake "Sailfest".

 What a neat event!

Hali the bald eagle.

Poor Hali.

Want!

Full!

I don't recall the last time the lake was this full.

Marina was too.

Working on his Junior Ranger book.

Just like the ocean.  Smelled and sounded like it too.


Antelope Island.



Hobie Cat?

Kennecott smoketack.

Stansbury Island.

Tour boats.  Wonder if they were on a 3 hour tour?

Altair working with him on the book.

Exploring.

"Take my picture!"

Vendor area.

Swearing in after completing his Junior Ranger book.

Sailboat regatta.

Boats everywhere!

Empty marina,  everyone was out on the water.

The stack got a new upper paint job complete with the Kennecott logo.

"Let's clean up the motorhome."

The aging dog makes it so we can't leave the house for more than a few hours at a time, so going on an adventure in our motorhome is next to impossible this year.  But that doesn't mean we can't at least pull it out of the parking spot and clean it!

He got up on top to blow off any debris before I got started pressure washing.

Several hours later, one clean ride!  
I ceramic coated the entire thing for some added protection from the elements.
