Campout

Every summer we have plans to go camping.

And then the summer flies by.

And we haven't camped.

Summer may be over now,

but there's still a little good weather

to be enjoyed.

Last weekend, we headed up to the Gap

with our tent and our boat,

found the perfect spot

overlooking the lake,

and camped for the night.

Doug did the fire

and the girls did the cooking.

(I did the photographing!)

The night got a little chilly,

but when the sun came up,

my wonderful husband

started up a new fire

and cooked breakfast for us.

After we broke camp,

we took the boat out

for a bit of morning fishing.

London pretty much
never took her eyes off that bobber
(except to smile for the camera, of course).

She got a good lesson from dad
on baiting a hook.

Austin had all the luck this time.
He caught a trout and a perch.

There's not much that beats
enjoying the outdoors
and being with your family.
Love it!
