First Camping Trip of the Season

We finally kicked off our summer camping season this weekend. It was hard deciding whether or not to go given the weather and the weekend forecast but we decided to go for it anyway. We had a ton of mishaps along the way and things in our trailer aren't working correctly we found out after we got there. We tried to make the best of it though and spent a lot of time inside the trailer playing cards and coloring and making up songs and stories to pass the time while it rained, thundered, and even hailed on us. We had fun outside in between storms and got to see some new places that we had never been before. I wish the weather would have cooperated for us to explore more but we have already decided to make a day trip back up there soon to do so.

We ended up at Granite Flat Campground near Tibble Fork Reservoir. It was a beautiful place and we will have to keep it in mind for next summer as well. Hopefully with a little more planning ahead and cooperating weather. We still got to roast marshmallows, sit around the fire, climb some logs, play in the dirt a little and even feed some ducks some animal crackers at the reservoir. So not a complete loss.

There were too many photo's I wanted to share so I did another slide show. Please let me know if you want to see any of them closer up. Enjoy!
