We had planned to leave between 5:00-5:30, but due to some complication did not get on the road until 8p. This is what I looked like as I waited.About a 1/2 hour into the trip, one of the containers on Andy's truck flew open and his coat fell unto the highway. Emma and I, driving behind them, turned around and Emma retrieved it from the middle of the highway (safety was always first). We got to the campsite around 11p and found a group of Boy Scouts had the same idea to camp.
I met my goal of starting my first campfire. Here I go.
Michael and I helping Andy prepare for Egg Mash.Trying to crack eggs like Audrey Hepburn in Sabrina.
We spent most of Saturday morning on the beach.Dixie loved it!
Dixie is also a rule breaker
Michael telling a story about worms. I only caught the tail end.
A man and his dog.
After lunch we hiked 2+ miles to try and fish at Nordhouse Lake.
I cast my line over a tree and then got the hook caught in a tree in the water.
Trying to get the line out of the branch and then getting stuck in the tree
From a lookout we saw two porcupines in a tree. Who knew they could climb?For few tense moments we thought they may be bear cubs.
After our hike, and while we waited for the fire to burn to coals, Andy said, "Let's do some team building.Team Building = trying to break this log with physics
We're hesitant.
We didn't accomplish what we sat out to do but had a great time doing it.
Katie and I consoling each other.
Saturday night tradition: Kabobs!As usual it rained Sunday morning and I bolted awake realizing I had left my camera outside. I'm thinking about writing to Nikon and commending them for the resilience of their product!
It was interesting to see the new group dynamics that the guys brought. It's definitely different, but something I could probably get very used to. I'm sure they could say the same thing about camping with girls. Whoo Hoo!
