Camping in the Mountains

Danny, Nick, and I went camping in the mountains this weekend...or rather Friday night. We had intended to stay the weekend, but several things were against us. First the weather did not cooperate. It was not supposed to rain this weekend, but at our campground it did. That brings us to #2...the campground that Danny has stayed at before and wanted to go to this weekend was full, so we had to find another one, and it was not nearly as nice as Davidson River. So, we decided to come home early as the camper was soaking wet and will take a while to dry out. I do have pictures from the trip though. On a positive note, Nick seemed to like camping a lot.

PICTURES

Here is the camper all set up on Saturday...This picture was made about noon when we decided to come home. As you can see, we didn't have space to set up the screen room. The picture was made from our campsite designated picnic/fire area which you will be able to see more of on the next picture.

The picnic/fire area was behind the camper and up just a little hill (there was only 1 step, some campsites had STAIRS to climb to get to the picnic area. There was a fire pit/grill on the other side of the picnic table and a nice little clearing if the weather had been better.

So here we are on our walk before we left. Doesn't Nick look cute in his little hoodie? Keep in mind that all these pictures on our nature walk were made at around noon on Saturday...it's not raining now, but the fog is like pea soup.

Nick seemed to feel right at home on the camper bed.

Here is Nick watching me fix supper Friday night very carefully hoping that I will offer him something to eat or drop something.

Here is the last shot of Nick watching Danny load up the back of the truck while I finish packing up the inside so we can head for home.
