Antelope Island

On Memorial Day we took a little trip to Antelope Island and met up with my sister, brother and their families. I was pretty excited since the "island" has escaped my travels until that morning. Upon approaching the gate to enter the island, we encountered a flashing neon sign reading "the bugs are bad, biting nats". OK.

To make a long story short, we hiked, saw some buffalo, a coyote, antelope, ate some food, and Rosemary came off the island looking like she had broken out with the pox.

during my brief stint as a resident of utah, i had the following exposure to antelope island:
a newly returned missionary in my ward didn't show up at his parents' house one night. nor the next. after a couple days, they reported him missing; the police instituted a search; the ward fasted together. it was scary and induced panic amongst many.
turns out he was camping on antelope island.
moral: grown men do not need to report their whereabouts, unless, of course, they're still living with mom and dad.

Wow. I've never seen pictures of antelope island. Looks like a fun outing. Except the bugs. We had lots of bugs flying around us this weekend in Capital Reef, but luckily none bit.

That last pic is flippin' adorable!!
