The Dunes

The sand dunes are the perfect place to have bonfires and up here in Rexburg, its one of the coolest places to go. This last Friday i went with a group of friends. One of them went to Columbia on his mission and they made lanters.....remember Tangled? yeah kinda like those ones, but HUGE and so he wanted to try the method out and make some of our own! we made some out of tissue paper and constructed our own fueling device. We glued them together and made three. Then we hopped out to the Dunes and went to light them off. umm to cut to the chase i'll just tell you that it didn't work hahah the wind wasn't in our favor. We tried to light a small one and it caught of fire then we tried the second one (i made it and named it barbie because it is pink and white). It never filled with enough gas to actually take off. We're in the process of figuring out why it wasn't working. Matt and Kevin are both studying to be petroleum engineers so i'll leave it up to them. We're hoping it was just the wind and that's why it never worked. We'll have to try again. But it was still a great night out to the dunes and spent with friends and roommates!

This thing was on FIIIIIRE.

This is one of my favorite pictures of the night!
