Camping

We finally did it. After a couple of years of not camping we finally went last weekend. We even bought a camper last spring and have yet to use it. We went for Austin's Birthday. We camped at Montpelier Canyon in Idaho. It is about 30 miles out of Bear Lake. We didn't realise how far from Bear Lake it actually was. We reserved the camp spot a month ago. When we finally got there we were a little shocked. The Spot was nothing like it said it was online. No smooth place to put a tent (big roots sticking up everywhere and big tire marks like someone had got there truck stuck), no fire pit, no table. We drove back a few miles until we had cell phone service and called, of course they were closed. We went back and walked around the other camp sites. We noticed that the site next to ours was a lot better and had not been reserved, so we moved our reservation sign to that one and unloaded. It turned out really good. It was Austin's 11th Birthday so we made his favorite dinner in the dutch oven (tacos) and surprised him with cake and ice cream after. McCall was so excited to sleep in a tent that at about 8:00 she changed into her pajamas. Asher did so good. He was just staring at the fire. I think he may turn out to be another pyromaniac like his big brother.
