CAMPING

DJ finally convinced me to go camping for the first time this summer. I'm not a terribly huge fan of camping. I never went growing up except for the occasional "Girls Camp" so it never really excited me. I just don't get the point of sleeping in a tent on an air mattress when if we just drove twenty mins we could be home in our comfy bed. But anyway I went and it ended up being pretty fun!


We just stayed at the "Little Mill" up AF canyon. We were so lucky to get put right between the crying baby family, the barking dog family, and the very loud Hispanic family who was up tell 3 a.m..... Other then the sleeping part though it was nice. We took my Dad's Jeep and went up to Silver Lake on a drive that was beautiful.



There was a flood going over the road up around Alpine Loop area. It was like a whole river going over the road.




Anyway this is one of many camping trips I fear to come. Hopefully the next will be a little more exciting.

I can never understand why the loudest campers are that of our hispanic neighbors. It does look beautiful I'm glad you went.

Jealous! I want to take the jeep camping! We love camping. The food always tastes so yummy when you are camping, especially breakfast! I love waking up in a tent with the sunlight coming in, and hearing the birds, and the wind in the trees. I can't believe you guys went to Little Mill though. Timpanookie is so much better! Anyway, looks like fun! Oh and camping can also be lots of fun if you go with friends/family!!! Then you can stay up playing games and such! Love ya! See you next week! Yeah! :)

You have to go further away from home to make it worth camping in my opinion. Glad you had a good time though.

I hear ya about camping. I don't get the fun of it. And I don't think we can count Girl's Camp as camping... I mean, for most of the years we were in cabins.
