Campout!


We had a great time camping this weekend! Landon and I went up Friday afternoon (I got to flex at 12:00!) so we found the campground that we had reservations for, we were not able to camp at the campground we had previously stayed, because it was full, so we had to camp on the other side of the lake.
It took another 40 minutes to get to the other campground, but we eventually found it, got a site that we thought would be good, and set up.
The last site that we stayed at on this lake was really quiet. Not too many dogs, or many young kids, it was nice.
This side of the lake, or it could have just been the time of year…There was a dog at almost every campsite, as well, as tons of little kids. And by the sounds of it, not too many of them were having a good experience.
We are going to be there with the noisy kids someday, but right now, it is nice to go camping, and not have to be woken up by a screaming child.
However, I will give them this; it was probably the crows that woke the child! Those darn things were loud as.
After we got set up, and made a quick dinner, we just hung out for the rest of the night, it was great. The next day, our friends (who will henceforth be known as LC and SC) came up with their boat, so we went out on the Lake for most of the day.
We played around in a nice cove, and then later after asking Landon and me if we wanted to ski, and us declining! SC decided that he would go ahead and wake board, then ski.
After telling us that he was terrible, and not to be too disappointed by his performance, he went out and showed us his stuff.
Just one thing to say to SC. Whatever, you were awesome. You can’t tell us again that you are terrible, and have us believe you! And as for LC, maybe next time for the tube ya?
It was so great to have company on our camp trips. Not that we don’t like to go by ourselves, we do, but it was also very nice to shake things up a bit, and have friends.
The weather could not have been better. And the company was superb. I would say that we had an excellent time.
It was a great day! After we got back to land we went back to camp, made tinfoil dinners, and then just hung out, played some games, and just relaxed!
Sunday was pack up day, so we ate, and then packed up.
LC and SC went back out on the Lake, while Landon and I finished striking camp. We then went down to the beach to see how it was. There was a “No Dogs on the Beach” clause so we ended up not swimming. It was too hot to leave poor Butch in the Truck.
And if we tied him to a bench outside of the beach area, he would be one of those Dogs that I spoke about earlier. One that would be way worse than any crying child too!
So we went home, unpacked, started the wash and watched the race.
Ahhh. Another great weekend with my husband here.
