Crystal Park ~ Memorial Day Weekend

Our family has traveled to Dillon for the past 6 years.  Each and every time we go Hailey begs us to go to Crystal Park......she loves rocks and crystals.   It's not in Dillon, so it's always been a short drive away.  The answer has always been NO.  Finally, we made it a priority to go and she was thrilled.

We packed up to camp, of course it was a bit cool and rainy.  We camped at a real nice spot and there were kids close by for the girls to play with.  We spent time playing cards, hiking the rocks across from our site, and sitting by the campfire.  We even took a dip in the local hot springs....which was kind of gross.  We spent a few hours digging for Crystals at the park.   Again, it was rainy, so we didn't stay as long as we had expected.  But, we did find crystals.

 Our beautiful girls.



 They spent a lot of time swinging on the hammock.

 Cooking dinner for themselves....hot dogs.

 The neighbors took them on a little ride.

 Time to dig at Crystal Park.





 The girls working together to find crystals.

 Once we got home, lots of time was spent going through the crystals.  They cleaned, sorted, and scrubbed the crystals in the creek next to our campsite.




It was lots of fun girls....we'll have to do it again some time!
