The crew of 4 adults and 10 scouts took off early this morning for the  Black Canyon. They are quite excited to be on the river for 3 days, and Zach's Uncle Steve is providing an insiders' tour of the Hoover Dam later today. Should be a really great day!

Shotgun shooting

I am sorry this is a little late..... here are some pictures from the shotgun shooting day. After having got lost on the way to the Lemon Grove Rod and Gun Club we finally made it. A few of us were novices at this, but the larger portion of our group were experts. At the end of the day there was a shooting contest with which two of our group qualified for. One of the received second place! What a day it was. It was my first time shooting and I really enjoyed it. I hope every one else did too.
