And I was unable to get a reliable connection to check e-mails and FaceBook so I had to resort to old familiar ways...luckily I was prepared.
I spent much time near the campfire because it was a bit chilly and damp. Gracie didn't seem to mind hanging out on my lap.
Nearby family came to visit us and have lunch one day too. That was a nice time catching up.
Gracie seems to be saying "yuck" regarding someone's hot dog, but we know better....
And the s'mores were a favorite (as usual). This time we used dark chocolate pips and they hit the spot.
Just like last time, we saw this little guy and were able to snap a couple of photos. I thought it was a chipmunk last time and it looked like a rabbit running through the trees this time. It might be a squirrel with a lopped off tail...what do you think?
The kids fished with dad, but dad was the only one who caught anything - a small bass. We were a little sad that there would be no fish fry. But it was still nice...
We tried out the Dutch Oven for the first time. I used leftover steak, beef broth, potatoes, squash, carrots and onion to make a stew.
It was good at dinnertime, and then later...
It was a nice few days away from it all...
Awesome! I'm ready for camp weather. We are finally getting warm here.
