well, after one night of implementing plan 'b' (ian's parents' house) we made our first camping trip with oren really happen. Friday night we drove out to camp along the nestucca river, but unfortunately all the campsites were full...well, all except for one next to some pretty rowdy country-music blasting guys...not our first choice for tent neighbors. and we didn't think they would appreciate an early oren wake-up the next morning anyway. so plan 'b' was put into effect for the first night.
after a little bit of research and a good recommendation from peggy, we got up the next morning, ate a yummy breakfast, and drove off in search of plan 'c'. lucky us! we arrived at Spruce Run campground just as a group of campers was leaving...and it was for a fantastic walk-in site to boot! we are already planning our next trip (and shopping for our very own car-camping tent!)
here are a few photos:
this one is so darn cute i had to post, but couldn't rotate it...sorry.
our lovely campsite was down this path in the trees...
you can see the vastness of the tent illustrated here - it doesn't quite fit on the tent pad! (thanks again s and t!!)
friendly reminder: always check your gear BEFORE you leave
cute boys, fuzzy photo
nothin' like napin' in the great outdoors!
lucy had fun too, although she would have really liked to go swimming.
and i think my arms have outgrown my sleeves!!
