Now that it is October and the weather is getting colder I have more free time so I have decided to catch up on my blog a bit. I already miss summer so I decided to write this blog to remind me of the fun I had back in July.
Last weekend I saw my friends Justin and Krista and it reminded me of how much fun we had on our Bullards Bar camping trip last summer. I had a great trip and I hope we can go again next year.
We arrived at Bullards Bar Reservoir on Saturday, July 23 mid-morning. The lake was gorgeous! The weather was warm and the water looked very inviting, the water temp was about 75 degrees. When we arrived at the lake we launched the boat after quickly packing it for the day. My friend Rob helped me with the trailer. This was the first time taking my friends Rob and Shayna with their children to the lake. I love taking kids to the lake because they have so much fun. Grown-ups have fun too but they don't get as excited as the kids. After launching the boat Rob and Andy unhooked the trailer and parked the truck. I was so impressed! Before I even had the boat tied up at the marina the boys had the trailer unhooked and put in the perfect parking spot. Talk about MVPs! Usually I have to fight with the trailer and do a lot of work, which is fine by me because I enjoy it, but I felt spoiled on this trip because the boys did the work for me and I didn't even have to direct them.
We spent the day on the lake and had a lot of fun. The two youngest members of our crew were troopers. They went all day without a nap and were still so well behaved and happy. We had a great time watching the little kids and big kids on the tube.

After spending the day on the lake we went back to the campground and settled in for the night. We had a great potluck dinner and ended the night with a round of S’mores and campfire games.

After getting a good night of sleep we got up and headed back out to the lake. The first thing we did at the lake was feed the fish. Then we spent the day on the water and headed back home to Reno.

Another great trip to Bullards Bar.
