camping trip

Our camping trip this past weekend was great. We had between 25-30 people and had a great time hanging together. For those who couldn’t make it –we plan on it again sometime (anybody want to go next month –just kidding, but seriously anybody want to)?
Saturday night we sang some songs around a campfire together (thanks to Darren & Nick for playing). This was the only time we all intentionally came together so that made it extra special –that and some other stuff that happened -I’d explain it but it’s one of those things you just had to be there for. We did some hikes (or aimless walking at times), climbed into the “cave”, played games, shot some pellet guns and enjoyed great fires and smores.
The only bummer to me was that we ended up a little divided. We thought the sites would all be closer together. As it turned out there was a little divide or chasm as it were. So we had 2 “base camps” but at least the group was equally divided between the two. The real bummer in this was that some idiot on “my side” forgot his French Press (coffee maker). So I had to walk all the way (at least a minute and a half) to the other “side of camp” to borrow theirs. That’ll learn me.
The weather was great –slightly warm at high noon, but overall sweet. There was lots of playing, conversations, no bad accidents/injuries (but if a bee every stings my baby again…it’s on) and great food –Wendy cracked out the Dutch oven thing –WOW, YUM!
