First Camp Site - The Meadows


On our way to the campsite on HWY 20


Setting up camp. The girls loved it and were running up and down the little gravel hill between our camp and the truck. Then we realized they weren't outside anymore and when we looked, they were in the truck, front seat..."Driving"

Looking for the deer footprints


Found them!


"Meadow" camp site aptly named, although few years
back a fire ravaged the area...as you can tell

We had a great time on our first camping excursion with the girls. Everything went great except the actual sleeping in the tent part. Kendall woke up first around 11:00 and then they both woke up again at 1:00...screaming! So, we put on the Little Mermaid and they calmed down. Finally fell asleep again around 2:00 and slept til morning. Also, all night there were deer wandering our campsite, and eating grass loudly. At one point we think one was running and then didn't realize that our tent was there in the dark because it sounded like he was running full speed at us and then had to leap over us! Crazy. We are looking forward to our next camping trip and hopefully the night will go better next time.




So this next video is pretty funny. After we woke up the next morning, we tried to drive up to this lookout point where supposedly there are great 360 views of all the mountains. The hike from the parking lot was only .5 miles, but on the way up Kendall decided to throw a fit about me not picking her up...so here she is in all her fit glory! Needlesstosay, we turned around and headed back to the car and never made it to the top.
