New Drinks

Pretty Tasty!

Headed to Sundance

Antelope Island 2 - Beach






The thousands of seagulls out here were very confused, they think this is the ocean.

More taste-testing.


It is VERY salty and tastes different than ocean water, more like throat gargling water.


Proof that we were in the salt lake, even his shadow took a dip.


It was a LONG walk out to the water, it looks like it was low tide, not sure if there are actually tides in the lake but it appeared that way. Will google that later today.



Like I said, it was a LONG walk.


The beach had sea oats just like at the ocean and the breeze was great! It was a little stinky though, think "Brunswick marsh stink".



The sand wasn't too bad, it wasn't powdery and didn't stick to your skin like beach sand. Clay said the brochure for Antelope Island stated that the sand was actually brine shrimp poop covered in minerals. Double eeeew! Glad they had showers to wash all that shrimpy excrement off.

Honey Badger Don't Care

We saw this stuffed badger at Cabellas, we also saw a javelina (a type of wild boar) which we had read about in Dog On It the Chet and Bernie Series but for some reason I didn't take a picture of it. If you have not seen this video about the Honey badger you definitely should see it now! PG-13 or possibly R rated due to language.


Antelope Island 1


After fueling up at the In N Out Burger we headed north to Antelope Island. You can drive out to it via a 7 mile causeway. We climbed up to the top of the rocks to look out over the lake and I couldn't resist taste testing the rock to see if it was salty. It wasn't, it just tasted like dirt. Eeew!

Clay has dubbed this the "poopie face," it really was my "there is a small horsefly in my ear" face.




Then we did get some good photos after I smashed the horsefly.
