Memorial Weekend 2011

Memorial weekend for me has been camping since I was 4 years old. I was introduced to this by my step dad, Bumby. He has a group of friends that get together every Memorial weekend and they call themselves Tent City. We take over entire campgrounds. I believe they are on their 42nd year. This year was the first for Jolynn. We decided to take it slow and go to their cabin first, then go camp for one night. When we got to the cabin we discovered that all four of us were sick with the same cough. After listening to the forecast of rain for 3 days, we decided not to camp out. Good plan on our part because being sick, sleeping on the ground, and packing up wet gear=no fun.

Here are some pictures of our fun filled weekend.

Bath time in Ducky!

Having some bananas and cheerios before our trip to Tent City.



Made it to Tent City for a few hours.


Playing with Marge Gamache at Tent City.







When we got back from TC I tried my hand at the Bobcat. Did pretty good until...
I got it REALLY stuck. Neighbors brought over a tractor to get it out.




After trying to dig it out, my mom and I went for a trip into town for a little spa time. Jolynn slept through most of it.









When she woke up my mom gave her a swim lesson (since she missed this week)
