Palisade Campground!

We keep saying what wonderful neighbors we have! A few families in the neighborhood came with us to Palisade Campground near Manti over the 11th of July. I loved loved loved this campground. Can I say loved one more time, cause I loved it! Here are some of the highlights.

Friday: Drove to camp and set up, then went to the Manti house with the Burninghams for dinner. Stayed up late visiting with our fun friends, the Dowdles, Coles, Gibsons, and Burninghams

Saturday: Guys went golfing (yes, I said golfing! There is a golf course at this State park). The gals and kids went and set up our area at the beach. There is a playground for kids, paddleboats to rent, and a dock to swim out to. We could have spent a week just hanging out at the lake. That afternoon, Casey was challenged to a race, nobody thought that he could beat the "so totally in shape and looking awesome" Josh. So we laughed hard as the races began, and lo and behold, that Casey has some serious speed! Good times! That night we made a
Dutch Oven



dinner with 40 mile stew prepared Casey style. SO DELICIOUS! And Darci made us some delicious peach and raspberry cobbler. We always eat so well when we camp. After dinner, 3 of the families headed home, but the Burninghams (Josh and Susie, we call them our die hard friends) stayed one more night with us. We can always count on them to be up for anything. We always have fun with them, and they are always willing to do whatever, whenever. We decided to go to the drive-in movie theatre in Mt. Pleasant. It is totally old school and we love it!


Sunday: We spent most of the morning at the lake and decided to head out early afternoon. We stopped at a little diner for lunch. We love little ma & pa shops. They might take forever to get your food to you, but it always ends of being the best greasy food ever! :)
We are so glad that we were able to go on this campout with our friends and neighbors, and are determined to go again next year!

How have we missed this great park? I had no idea how fun, even though you have told me. I guess the pictures tell it all.
