SPRING IN SIGHT

We got a few more inches of snow last night and hoping this will be the last one of the season.  It is almost spring and we are more than ready.  We have a few plants coming up and need to get outside some more to prepare the garden space for this year.  We had a nice hike the other day down the Knobstone trail by Elk Creek Lake and we are also ready for some more hiking this year!  I have a new tent and sleeping bags ordered and they should be here by tomorrow.  More blueberry seeds ordered to and hopefully these will do better then the last bunch!  We also got a new bunny and a bunch of new puppies!  That's the latest updates for now.

End of Camping Season in Indiana

For most folks here in Indiana we are wrapping up the last of the Camping season for 2012.  We decided to head out for another trip before the cold air settled in. We loaded up the camper and away we went to the great outdoors.  We hiked,cooked out on the open fire and let the kids climb the trees.  Before long the rain came and we got to sleep listening to the raindrops hitting the top of the camper.  The temperature dropped and before long we had to turn on the heat.  Looks like we waited to the last possible minute but at least we got one more trip outdoors.

Camping

We made it back from our first camping trip of the year!  We camped and fished and cooked out on the grill.  The kids had fun catching those fish but they were to little to keep so we had to throw them back.  We seen plenty of wildlife.  Snakes,birds,frogs,fish,geese and spiders.  What more do you need to make it a real camping trip?  It took all week to pack and will probably take a week to unpack but the kids had a blast and will remember it forever! It's  all worth it in the end.
