For any non-Utahns who might be reading this blog, Bear Lake is a couple of hours from Salt Lake, and is known for it's Caribean-blue water. None of us had been there before, so we decided to head up for the day. It was a bit cloudy, so you can't really tell the color of the water in the pictures, but it was nice. I was impressed by the incredible clarity of the water. It was a little cool so we spent quite a bit of time hanging out on the beach. Here, Angie and I show off our snazzy sand castle - small in size, but big in awesomeness! :)
We also made sure to take advantage of the famous fresh raspberry shakes the area specializes in! They were fabulous!
Just for kicks, we stopped by Idaho before heading back to Salt Lake, another first for several people in our group. 
Despite our yummy raspberry shakes, we were pretty hungry by the time we got back to Logan. Angie was thrilled to find a restaurant that shared her name, so we stopped there. If any of you pass through Logan, I would recommend it! 
All in all, a good day!
Stay tuned for more goals ahead. We're taking a short break on Rachelle A's hiking goal for a couple a weeks, since she is moving next weekend. Rachelle K has run into a roadblock as well on her picture-a-day goal, since she lost her camera last week :(. I thought about getting out my crayons and markers and drawing a picture a day, but someone that doesn't have the same effect - my artistic skills haven't improved much since the 3rd grade. Callie also ran into challenges over the past couple of weeks, with her computer crashing the first week of grad school! Aargh! We will prevail!
