Cali Goes Camping

Last week while Jim and I were out of town Cali went on her first solo camping trip with two friends.

This only made me slightly nervous because I remember all too well Logan's first solo camping trip with buddies when they were almost killed!! Cali promised me they would not camp in any logging areas - I felt so much better!

We were able to find them a camping spot at Silver Falls State Park at the last minute. It was an RV camp spot but there was enough room for them to set up a tent.

They had a great time - they found a "watering hole" and did some fishing. Yes, the girls went to the store and bought their own bait, and baited their own hooks - what women! I am not sure what would have happened if they had actually caught something but they are pretty tough girls!

And when they didn't catch any fish they did a little swimming and jumping off the rope swing.

They went on a hike and did a little bird watching...

They checked out a few of the beautiful water falls in the park

They cooked their own meals including foil dinners and a dutch oven cake!

And then they played a few games of cards.

They had a great time and all three of them came home in one piece!
