Yesterday evening Jon and I rode our
bikes down to Utah Lake. It wonderful fun! When we got there, we laid out a
blanket and each ate a half of a mini watermelon. Then, we decided to go out
near the water’s edge so that we could walk along the shore and play in the
water.
Well. Apparently Utah Lake has no
such thing as a solid, sandy beach. Welcome to suddenly getting stuck in mud as
the water’s edge laughs at you 10 feet away. We tried to retreat, but the mud
sucked our shoes down a foot into the ground. So then we worked on ungluing our
shoes. By this point, we were both barefoot, muddy shoes in hand, and stuck
between the water’s edge and solid ground. Figuring that we’d make it all worth
it, we left our shoes behind and braved the last 10 feet to the water’s edge.
The mud was up to our knees! But it was so fun.
Knee deep in mud, stuck out near the
water’s edge, holding hands with Jon—it was one of the most fun sunsets I’ve
ever had.
