Little brother Max: Camping

I got so far behind in blogging due to.... well....camping and other wonderful distractions this summer.

We went to one of the beautiful state campgrounds and enjoyed a 2 week stint of camping and relaxing. We, for the most part, had wonderful weather, but we did have a doozy of a thunderstorm while there. The wind was so strong, it pulled the awning from the deflappers (awning clips that keep the awning from flapping, hence the name!) I tried to fix them, but wasn't able to. My sister came up to spend the night and she attempted to, but they just didn't stay. We had to wait it out until Dan came back from work to fix it.

I don't mind the storms while camping. As a matter of fact, I love watching and listening to them. Besides, it's kind of cozy all huddled in the camper watching the lightning and hearing the crashing of the thunder.

In the following days, it was beautiful weather, sunny and warm. Great weather for having all kinds of fun.

The geese were also enjoying the warm weather. They also seemed to enjoy pooping everywhere! Man! Their poop is the size of small dogs for pete sakes! I'm sure you've heard of the expression "Sh_t like a goose" Oh.... it's sooo true!

Dan commuted to work everyday, which isn't too bad, especially when he comes home from work to the great outdoors and happy kids eagerly anticipating his homecoming!
