Oak City Canyon

On Tuesday we went "up the canyon". Brent has really fond memories of going "up the canyon" growing up and had mentioned when we were traveling that he would like to take the boys to Oak City Canyon. So it was really great and just one of those moments when we found out the plan was to go to the canyon on Tuesday. We decided that the boys should go fishing while we were there. And we had lunch there too.

Here Brent and Merrill get the poles ready. With the boys eagerly looking on.




I think Max shadowed Brent the entire time he was fishing! He loves to fish.





Oak Creek Canyon is a campground. It has individual campgrounds and large group campgrounds. When we went up we used one of the group ones, we were the only ones up there and it was great.

Sharleen brought up some board games and the kids enjoyed some great games with her and each other. They started with Mexican Train.



Sharleen told us when she was a teenager they would all drive up to the campground, turn on their radios and have a dance. Jay said he would just park on a back street in Delta and turn on the radio and dance with Sharleen. It was fun to hear the stories of their youth! In the picture below they would park towards the back right side of the parking lot.
