Our trip to Mammoth Lakes this year did not disappoint. Tons of adventure and family fellowship. Most people could not handle the adventure on these trips. We never sit and rest - always moving and doing. I love Gods creation in Mammoth and the greater East Side of the Sierras. It is a wonderland for sure.
Just so much fun and thanks to everyone for making it such a special trip. Some of the many highs:
- A meal at Angels and the typical Stove last day. Ran into Dave Neal and his fam. This guy is the tops...
- Fishing, fishing and more fishing. John and I woke early for an East Walker run. Hooked a 24" fish or bigger only to loose it at my feet.
- Hiking to Duck Lake with my family and 11 year old daughter Amber! Missed da wifey who was recuperating from her digger on the MTB.
- Watching Sean going for it on the trail and his bike. He crashed, but got right back on.
- Bears in the woods. So cool - lil trash diggers.
- Running the trail with the family and tasting blood in the lungs!
- Beers pool side!
- Climbing the east side with my bro on the MTB.
- Hanging with John and just catching up with him. Love him very much.
- Great time with the Cierly's, Otis, Rays, and other Martin clans.
- Just seeing the great landscape God created on the East Side - what a place...
- Rock Creek Lake, East Walker, Convict Lake, Duck Lake, George, Mary, and the rest of the fishing holes! Especially Rush Creek...
- Seeing the kiddos fish and Seanys first fly fishing experience.
