Idaho

I just got back from a trip to Idaho with my aunt Lynn, all of her kids besides Taylor, and my Grandma Warner. It was a way fun trip! We stayed at Lynn's parents house in Cascade. Here are some pictures that I took while I was there:





On our way to Cascade, Idaho we stopped in Twin Falls and we walked through the new Twin Falls temple.





First thing we did when we got to Cascade was ride on their way fun zip line. The only problem with the zipline was all the bugs at the top. We got eaten alive!



One day we went to McCale to site see. We stopped at a fire station. It not your normal fire station though. The fire fighters here are called Smoke Jumpers. They parachute out of a plane into the fire area and instead of putting the fire out they just cut around the fire so that it just burns itself out.

They let Thomas dress up in the uniform. The uniform alone weighs a ton but they have to jump with 110 or more pounds on their back. After they have put the fire out they have to hike for 2 to 3 days out to be picked up.



Their mascot is none other than Smokey the Bear.





The fire fighters have to sew their own parachutes.



After every jump they hang them up and check for damage. If it is damaged at all they get to fix it themselves.




We got to go in the planes that they ride in. They don't have any doors. The cover we were holding is only for the rain.





This is the cockpit of the plane.




One day we went to the hot springs. This was our favorite pool because it was the perfect temperature and had sand on the bottom.






Note: Curtis liked to be in every possible picture he could.


We also went to this old antique store. My grandma was in heaven.


This store has been around for a while itself.

This picture was taken right before grandma and I left to Boise to fly home to Provo.


I had so much fun and want to thank the Warners for an awesome trip!
