Family Camp

The Young'uns were planning a camp-gathering at Lake Jordan but The Fuzz and His Sweetie had a lot of stuff going on and had planned to skip it.  But there were some changes made, and the planners and the Young Daughter managed to get The Fuzz's Sweetie on board.  So he caved as well.
With little lead time, and still some very necessary garden work to take care of, Our Fuzz and Sweetie had a busy morning.

But after some scrambling and quick packing, they managed to get on the road only a little behind schedule.


Here's a view of the main camp.  There were a few other tents pitched nearby.


There was a threat of rain, so a tarp was put up, just in case.  While there was no major rain, it did protect from a few sprinkles- besides providing some piece of mind.


Of course there was a campfire, and even marshmallows for "sa'mores".

The Fuzz got himself out of the sack early the last morning and enjoyed a bit of quiet and a cup of coffee.  Here's a look out at the lake in the light  rain.

The trip was enjoyed so much we are hoping to do it again.  The Fuzz and His Sweetie are even getting a larger tent to make things more enjoyable.  Now they only have a few small, backpacking-type tents.  And they can get a bit crowded* at times.  Especially in the rain.


We're all looking forward to the next time!


*Due to a slight foul up on The Fuzz's part, we had to squeeze 3 into a 2 person tent!  It was hard on The Claustrophobic Fuzz.

Looks like a great time and reminds me of the reunion we had years ago. Give us a heads up next time and we may be able to make it.
