“The submission of one’s will is really the only uniquely personal thing we have to place on God’s altar. The many other things we ‘give’ … are actually the things He has already given or loaned to us.”
~Elder Neal A. Maxwell~

August 10th, 2009 - Quartz Creek

We went back to Quartz Creek about a week later, but we took Lachlan this time. It was a beautiful day! The fishing wasn't nearly as good. The above fish was the only fish caught. But, we absolutely enjoyed being outside. Lachlan as usual was a trooper. He loves hanging out in his backpack, especially when dad's fishing.

After fishing we brought lunch and ate on the bank of the creek. It was so nice.

The last pic is one of the many reason's I love Shayne. He's picking up garbage. Wherever we go, and whatever we are doing, whenever Shayne sees somebody's lack of respect for Mother Nature and litters, he picks it up. He usually comes home with some wrapper or something in his pocket or backpack he's picked up on a trail or river. So, this area where we were at is at times a popular campsite, so there was quite a bit of garbage lying around. After eating, Shayne took Lachlan and the bag we had our lunch in, and cleaned up the campsite. I'm so glad Lachlan has such a good example for a daddy!
