Wet Weather Camping


"Camping in the rain is just about the best thing ever." Or, at least that is what we kept trying to tell ourselves as the deluge threatened to float our 15 man coliseum size tent down into the Skagit River. It really wasn't that bad though. The boys had a great time and Alex caught his first fish. it is hard to tell who is more excited, Alex or his proud Dad.

Jared tried really hard to learn the difference between a tIpee and a tEEpee as he began the path of all young boys in exploring the fascinating world of fire, FIRE FIRE!!!

Tyler had a great time collecting light sabers and hunting for chickmunks (translated as chipmunks for anyone over 3.5feet tall). As there was an abundant supply of both in the forest he got along just fine.
