Camping in the great outdoors??

Nope, not yet, it's just our backyard!

This spring Megan once again begged her dad to start camping this summer. We had no camping equipment. There are a few essentials that one needs in order to camp, or so I'm told. One of them is a tent, so to Costco we went in search of a tent. As you can see we found one. It just barely fits in our backyard! For Gordon's birthday we got him a lantern. Now I'm told we'll need to get a camp stove, and then the basic essentials should be met, and off camping they can go! I'm sure I'll go a time or two also. The last time I went camping I was 9 months pregnant with Megan. No wonder she likes to camp, and I don't. It was a warm memorable experience for her, wish I could say the same. I'll be glad to go and just be with the family in the great outdoors!setting up the tent for the first time
