Hi Oma,
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, we have been missing you around here. Looks like the trip was great!
I hope you had fun. I've only slept in a tent once. I'm not much for camping.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures. Looks like fun.
ReplyDeleteI can see a horse in the fire!
Looks like a great time to me.....what fun! I bet you have some great stories for us.
ReplyDeleteIt is so beautiful there. Looks like you had a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteYes, yes, but get to the sick kids. And any forest fires set. And how un-fun it really was (just trying to make ourselves feel better).
ReplyDeleteCan't decide which is scarier...the fire face or my face without makeup.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been camping since I was 12, and I don't intend to do it again, but I do love being in the woods and around bodies of water, like small creeks. Look forward to your pix.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back. I'll bet you have stories to tell. Can't wait to hear them.
