My Camping Trip . . . .

I had so much fun caming . . . on my days off this last weekend . . . I got to go up camping @ Mans Creek . . . the camp site name was Justright Campsite . . . LOL . . . and you know what it was . . . Just Right that is . . . when we first got there we set up the tarps over the table . . . had to move them once . . . but it was pretty easy . . . we took up this scrap oak for burning on the campfire . . . that stuff burns hot . . . and for a long time . . . . we had marshmellow, hotdogs, and baked potatoes the first nite for dinner . . . . I crashed pretty hard that first night cuz I was really tired from bein up all nite the day b4 . . . got up the next day around 8:30 AM . . . for breakfast we had scrambled eggs and potatoes . . . . mmm . . . . they were good . . . camping makes all food taste better . . . Grandma Jan showed up around 1:00 PM . . . or maybe a lil bit after that . . . we went for a walk up the road . . . there's a well pump just up the road from our camp site . . . good water . . . nobody liked it . . . but I've had worse . . . so I liked it . . . for lunch we had chicken and brocoli . . . mmm . . . that was good . . . the kids played in the stream next to our camp site . . . . man was that water cold . . . I had to keep on applying sunscreen on the kids so that they wouldnt burn . . . my neice Amber is the worst . . . she burns really easily . . . so I kept putting on sunblock every 2 or 3 hrs on her . . . . and she was still turning pink . . . poor thing . . . I know how sunburns can hurt . . . been burned a couple of times . . . . I got a ton of pictures and alot of 2 - 3 minute video clips of the camping trip . . . . my camera was so fun to use . . . everytime I got it out the kids wanted to play with it . . . I got a couple of good pictures of me that the kids took . . . I'll post one on my website . . . that nite I cooked up some steaks . . . had a fun time tryin' to get the coals burning . .. but finally got them goin' . . . . my steaks turned out to be a lil bit rare . . . but not much . . . everyone must have liked my cooking cuz it was all gone when I was done cooking it . . . I went to bed that nite around 11PM . . . . got up agian the next day around 8:30 again . . . fire was already started . . . we had pancakes for breakfast that morning . . . . we all went for a hike in the afternoon . . . .we had a small problem with feild mice getting into our food . . . had to throw out marshmellows and bread . . . those pest made a mess out of the toilet paper too . . . tryin' to build a nest . . . those lil buggers are cute but pesky . . . I got some nice pitures of butterflies too while I was up there . . . there was alot of them . . . every day in the afternoon you would see alot of them . . . well on the 3rd day I had to pack up and get ready to come home . . cuz I had to work last nite . . . work was a pain . . . not a bad nite . . . just I didnt have any sleep from the day b4 . . . and I was extremely tired . . . . but I survived. . . . well anyways Grandma Jan brought me home . . . and the rest as they say is history . . . until next post . . . Later . . . .
