It was hot... but fun.

we went here:

It was beautiful and the woods reminded me of Virginia and the Pine trees in Ponchatoula LA - Pine trees will always remind me of my Maw-maw's house - her driveway was a bed of pine needles.

we stayed in a screened shelter - can't beat the price. But that is about all you can't beat. Everything else is a little lacking - but it works!

after:

Making breakfast:

Hickory guarding the site - really he wasn't - he was complete chicken s** the whole time, especially when the raccoons came around at night

The very best part of being there:

the water was so clear - you could see straight to the bottom even eight feet deep.

Junk food is ok when you are camping right - offset by walking a 1/4 mile everytime you need to go to the bathroom and swimming all day right?

Meg and her fiance Justin - who bravely came camping with us!

Camping can be EXHAUSTING for mom and dad.

Justin our cuddly bodyguard!

I think you outgrew that Maiya

Hickory's apartment complete with fan when we'd head to the lake

He could drag her through the woods but luckily didn't

one of our favorite camp dinners: faJeetas

Our night time guests:

Early morning fishing (with scaredy cat Hickory):

Maiya was good at catching roly-polys

and feeding them breakfast:

Banana Boats - our fav camping dessert.

Hickory dug up a cool spot:

peace out!
