My truck and tent again

The kids just loved this stump for some reason

When all else fails a movie on the I-Pad can cure boredom

Other friends visited us the second night.

Naptime is over!

Our friends boat was named 'The Black Pearl'

Don't they look like they are having fun?

My buddy Steven calls this picture "The Most interesting Man in the world" - I laugh but posted it anyway.

Going Camping...

Going to be off the rest of the week because we are heading off to the North Carolina mountains tomorrow to go camping with some good friends of ours. Headed to a place called Julian Price Park which sounds lovely except for the lack of electricity. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not one of these people who think camping involves a Holiday Inn however I would like an electrical outlet to plug in a radio. Everyone has said this place doesn't even have lights in the bathroom. Solution? I went out to BJ's and bought a whole ton of batteries yesterday.
I am really looking forward to the trip. I haven't been camping in years and my son has of course never been. I think he is old enough to actually enjoy it now. I am also hoping to get some fishing done... possibly teaching my son as well. Now since he has the attention span of a flea for "boring" things like watching a hook in the water my prospects aren't great. I am just hoping that at some point we are able to land one fish so he can see how it's done.
I hope everyone has a great weekend and I hope to have some pictures to share next week. Pray for no rain!
