We went camping this last weekend for Father's Day. We had planned on going to Yankee Meadow, thinking that it wouldn't be very busy, but we were wrong. There were only a couple of camping sites open, and they of course, were the worst ones. Discouraged we headed back home, and on a last ditch effort made a turn on the road. We found this....
We had the whole lake to ourselves. (Well, as you can see, there is another person in the shot, it isn't Robert, but some random guy who thought he'd come fishing in a lake with no fish!) It was awesome!! We had so much fun. We had a fire, made s'mores, roasted hot dogs, went on a hike,
and Teniah learned to pee in the wild. We had such a blast!!
Here is the girls on the hike. They had a blast! Of course Kierstin got carried the whole way, but we all had a good time! When Robert was holding Kierstin, this was all that she wanted to do, drink from his camel back!

What a great way to celebrate Father's Day and in such a beautiful place too!. I'm glad you found a bit of heaven off the beaten path. The girls looks so grown up. Thanks for the encouragement about blogging:) We'd love to see you sometime. I'll have to ask Jan'l about the details for the ranch. She mentioned the ranch when I saw her a few weeks ago.
