Bear Lake

Saturday and Sunday I went to Bear Lake for the first time with Terrance and my parents it was there first time too. It was a really pretty area and bear lake was a lot bigger then I thought that it was. We found it amusing how the part of bear lake that was in Idaho had a few houses every couple of acres near the Lake (but above the marshy area) and then when we crossed over to Utah there were a ton of houses by the lake just one after another on both sides of the road form small cabins to very large homes, even ones that looked like light houses. I saw immediately why people go all the way to the Utah side of bear lake where it is nice and developed and welcoming to visitors. As apposed to the farming land side of Idaho.

We stayed in a condo that my hubbys Grandparents let us use that was right by the beach of the lake. We walked by the beach, collected some sea shells, went swimming in the hot tub because it was definitely a bit chilly for the pool or the lake, and played games with my parents.

On the way to Bear Lake we stopped by Hopper Springs. This is a natural spring that bubbles up carbonated water like pop is except with out the yummy sugary taste of pop. That was fun to try some natural soda water, but it wasn't all that good. but we got a couple milk jugs full of it and added some cool aid to it which did make it quite a bit better. we only drank one jug of it at Bear lake and brought the other home. By the next day the jug of water was turning green so we decided to dump it out instead of drinking the natural soda pop. but it was definitely worth the experience of it.
