IMGP4949Megan and Melissa enjoys being able to colour while we were driving. IMGP4950 You can’t really see this that well but we drove on a gravel road for about 20 miles to get to our campsite. IMGP4952 Charlie took a nap a little ways away from the camper. IMGP4953 We set up out camp just off a road. IMGP4955 The girls spent quite a bit of time playing in the creek that was near the campsite. IMGP4971 Our first campfire, the kids had fun helping to find rocks to build up the ones that were already there from a previous camper. IMGP4981 IMGP4983 Jamie and I enjoying the fire.
