I got to ride one of our "darn Morgans" as grandpa Neves likes to call them. Later that afternoon when Whit, Jenna, and Jordan showed up we decided to take the first-timers out to Trapper! For those of you who haven't been, getting TO Trapper is 70% of the fun. 45 min drive in the back of Uncle Jay's pick-up truck and then a treacherous hike down a cliff for a little over a mile, over the raging river, and then warding off rattlesnakes and man-eating grasshoppers. Yes, one grasshopper tried to eat off my hand while I was catching it for bait.
It was in the back of this truck that I chipped my front tooth back when I was a young'in looking for arrowheads.
Taubi and Jordan's plethora of fish.
Our little fish, Ernesto. He did taste really really good.
My not so white gloves that helped save my hands from shredding down the mountain.
Steph vs. Mountain: mountain-1, steph-0 :(
More love in the back of the truck, Ninny and his lovely soon-to-be-wifey, Jenna.
The crew AFTER our Trapper adventure
We rode horses in the Pioneer day Parade! I WAS on the back of Pippi with Brett but after a slight tumble I landed on my feet, no worries, Brett was fine and he saved his ice cream sandwich too. Pig.
I was especially good at Catching rocks while fishing...and the other pic is just another glimpse of what we hiked down...
All in all I'd have to say it was a fun trip! We also participated in the town's local dance, ate sloppy joes at the town picnic, played and got 2nd in the community volleyball tournament, and managed to not die the whole time! Good times always are had with the Neves crew!!!

Oh, poor Ernesto :) Your trip looks so fun! I'm not too surprised you managed to injure yourself again...what ever are we going to do with you :)
Are you sure you didn't cut yourself with a razor blade? I'm starting to worry.
