A Taste of Trek

Mom and Dad trekked with the Arcadia Stake Youth this past Thursday, Friday and Saturday.  It was a glorious three days with wonderful youth, stalwart Ma's and Pa's, beautiful settings, spiritual vignettes and with many challenging experiences.  This post includes a few (of the more personal) of the 325 photos and video clips dad took the past three days just to let y'all know we survived.    Future posts will document the entire experience.



The entire Arcadia Stake Company
 
Mom was the Lemon Drop Lady in the lemon colored apron.  Throughout the trek she went up and down the line of 16 carts opening her pockets to the weary, dusty cart pushers and pullers.



Mom fussed over all the youth and was their cheerleader and supporting friend to the great trek leaders.

Along the trail we met up with Ephraim Hanks
The event was a physically testing, testimony building, legacy appreciating blessing.

  2. You two are hearty folk! And I didn't know it was possible to be so stylish on the trail...but you are looking good! I can't choose a favorite photo, I love them all!

  3. I would agree with Jeff and Reesa you two look the part. Very stylish with your attention to detail. Mom you seem like the perfect lemon drop lady bringing some hope and smiles on those young tired faces. But I have to say when I saw the picture of mom "waking up" I was like wait you slept outside without a tent #totescraycray. I don't remember that #roughingit
