Ice Caves
This past weekend after work Tyson and Julie drove out to the Ice Caves north of Rexburg. It was a very nice and relaxing drive until we got to the dirt road and bounced around the car for a few miles. 
Once there we were told that to get to the end of the cave you would have to go through water about six inches deep. Well with the ice underneath the water had to have been close to the mid 30's in temperature. About 300 Yards into the cave we hit water. 
Not about to get wet we took a few pictures and then drove home. 
Over all we had a great time together and look forward to going back to the caves closer to the winter when the ice should be more solid.

Mesa Falls
Monday July 20th both Julie and Tyson had the day off of work and chose to spend some time in the mountains. We drove up Mesa Falls and took some great pictures of the lower falls and then wanted to see what the upper falls looked like. Getting up there we found out that it was $5 to park in the parking lot. We were excited to see what must be so great as to charge people to park. 
SO we get down there and were severely disappointed as it was just a water fall. After that bummer we asked the park lady if there were any trails to hike from the parking lot and she informed us that we could hike down to the Lower Falls
and even down to the bottom of it.
While hiking we came across what we thought was a gummy treat in this bush. 
It was an actual berry stuck to the branch. It was a great hike and a wonderful day out in the great wilderness.

Our Indepenence!
We made it to Hailey for July 4th weekend. It was lots of fun seeing friends and family. On our way home we chose to take a more scenic route. We got to Arco and experienced a hail storm like no other. 2" of hail in close to six minutes. 
It was crazy. With all the rain that came this spring the mountains were full of life and everything was green. 
Saturday brought the parade, and fireworks and BBQ. The Parade started off with a two A-10 Warthog flyby.
That was amazing to see. The BBQ came with a huge feast, allowing Tyson to experiment with a few ideas that he has had. Ribs and a stuffed hamburger. It was intense.
As the weekend came to a close we had to head home back to work and school. We had a great time while we were there.
