One of our favorite places to camp is Death Valley National Park in the late winter/early spring.
It is a wonderful time of the year to enjoy this quiet, unhurried and beautiful place.

Keeping the water bottles full.

Dad and son out biking together. If you look close you can see the dog riding in a backpack on Dad's back.
Caleb loves camping!
And so does Hannah.
Cooking burgers over an open fire. It doesn't get any better than this!
On a beautiful February day Bob and the kids joined our good friend Shannon Peavey and his kids for morning of geocaching in Red Rock Canyon.
Geocaching a lot of fun, doing it in a place as beautiful as Red Rock Canyon makes it really great.

Clara checks out the water in one of the Tenaja's (Spanish for rock bowl) from recent rains.
And leaves a short-lived hand print in the sandstone.

And then having some fun. What a great time.
