Camping Night 1

Our drive from Richmond started out sunny and very humid after the recent rains so our arrival was a bit of a shock when it was very foggy, misty, and quite cool.  For those that brought a long sleeve shirt, pull-over or sweater, it was immediately pulled out.  For those that didn't (me) compromise was needed and a small throw blanket fit the bill.

We set up camp and relaxed by the fire until dinner time when we were hit with a rain shower so we all huddled in the shelter we put up over the picnic table and prepared our meal.  The rain ended and it was near our bedtime so we all prepared for bed.

Let’s get out there and go camping (and hiking) this weekend.  I have extra tents, sleeping bags, and sleeping pads if you are interested in camping but don’t have the gear.

I’ll have a campground reserved Friday night.  Please join us for a great night outdoors.  Great food and great company.  Park entrance fees apply ($30/car for 7 days).  Campsites are $15/night shared equally among campers

I’ll have a burgundy Honda Ridgeline at our campsite.
