Camping Kick Off

This was maybe the first Memorial Day since we've been married that we actually had the holiday off. We knew we wanted to get out of town and definitely be outdoors. So the obvious choice was made to go on the first camping trip of the season. It wasn't as long as we planned - we didn't end up going for the whole weekend since rain clouds toyed with us on and off, and no one likes to camp in the rain. However, we finally ended up saying let's just go for it and we packed up and went. We found the perfect camping spot with no one else around, totally free, on the river. A jackpot, considering the holiday. We ate until we felt sick (crackers and dip, fire roasted corn on the cob, fire roasted chicken nuggets, pickled asparagus, garlic bread, brownies,  bacon, hash browns, eggs), lounged by the fire, and snuggled up in a tent together. It was a great adventure with some great friends.
