Elk River Falls, Moose Creek Reservoir & Spring Valley














During Spring Break, we also were able to take a day and enjoy the outdoors. We first wanted to see the Elk River Falls. However, it was still closed. So we turned around and headed to Moose Creek Reservoir. The lake was still mostly frozen over but we ate lunch and enjoyed the area for a bit before heading to my personal favorite- Spring Valley. We met up with some friends and did tin foil dinners... yum! Oh, and can't forget about the fishing. We had no luck but of course Brandon had to try. =)

The Beautiful St. Joe River






The Saturday of Spring Break we drove out to the St. Joe River with another couple to fish all-day. The weather was beautiful and our surroundings were amazing! These pictures don't do justice to all of the beauty we saw around us that day. The river is miles and miles long. We traveled a good portion of it in the car but definitely not all of it.

P.S. - We also caught LOTS of fish. Our friends were fly fishing and we were just fishing with regular poles and worms. Brandon kept telling them they should try some of our worms because I was catching a fish about two minutes after I would cast in each time and then Brandon would have to fix the other pole for me. He spent most of the time putting weights, hooks, and worms on my poles and pulling fish off of the hooks and I just kept reeling them in! Finally our friends consented and then they started catching fish. Worms are the best!

Spring Break - Revisted



I definitely have not blogged for a long time because I still have these pictures from Spring Break on my camera. I was lucky enough to get a couple of days off for our Spring Break here last month and Brandon and I took off for Spokane for a little overnight getaway. I was proud of myself because I got a slammin' deal on the jacuzzi suite we stayed in. It is nothing pretty as you can see but it did have a jacuzzi!
