Camping Season Begins!






We took our first camping trip of the season for the past four days. The weather was wonderful, sunny and hot. It is raining a little now, but we are back home for restocking so I am just hoping it will water my plants for me and taper off by tomorrow afternoon when we go back out. Next up on our list, Ophir campground in the White mountains (link here)
These pictures were all taken at our favorite close to home camping spot. In the Chena River State Rec. Area, across from the Granite Tors trail head (Link). The rock beach means less mosquitoes and there is a nice shallow part of the river to camp beside so you don't have to worry about the kids floating downriver every single second! There is also some very good fishing close by, we all caught some nice Grayling (even Abbie, helped by Mom!) Good times!!

  1. That looks like really good fun in the sun. It's so relaxing being out camping, nothing to run off to do except more relaxing stuff like fishing, sitting by the fire, playing a game and getting your toes wet in the ice water. Wish I could have joined you...
