We got rained on a little, but found out the camper is water-tight; read; cooked over a campfire and then relaxed and watched the embers and the sunset. We were up at 5:30 because when one person in a pop-up camper needs to use the facilities, everyone in the camper is awake - human and canine. But the fishing is great at that hour and we caught more than fifty fish by 10:00.
Here is our weekend in pictures:
The first trick was to back the pickup under that camper - definitely not a job for me. |
What a beautiful spot!!! I think it looks like a great relaxing time - and I don't know if the dog life jacket is for fun or being very cautious and protective of a big dog as he learns to be a swimmer - but I love love love that picture!! Great post!
ReplyDeleteThe life jacket is because she is so big that she can only swim short distances without wearing out, and because hauling her back into the boat if she falls/jumps out takes a small crane. :)
DeleteThe Rancher and I are not much for camping. We prefer to "play on the water" and relax in a hotel room.
ReplyDeleteI am sure you will learn something everytime you have a camping adventure. Looks like your first time out was a success.
Neat capture on the last picture.

Sounds Great Tami!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a great first outing! I can't imagine 50 fish before ten - did you freeze a bunch or have a big fish fry?!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a relaxing time & a nice change of pace!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of fish to catch so quickly. Looks like too much work for me, but fun all the same. thanks for sharing Tami.
ReplyDeleteWe're using an aeropress (http://aerobie.com/products/aeropress.htm) when we go camping, hardly takes up any space and makes a great cup of coffee!
ReplyDeleteI have only camped in a tent and slept on an inflated mattress that deflates midway thorough the night. Despite your instant coffee looks like your accommodations were good and that you had a relaxing time. Perhaps instant coffee vs fresh leads to less coffee consumed = less caffein = easier to relax!
