| Our campsite |
Camping was wonderful. We were going to go back to the same spot as last year, but the sites were full. We drove a little farther and ended up at a place called Rock Creek. Sweet spot with a view of the lake. The lake did not look the best for swimming because of the lake weeds. There was one spot on the dock that was good for jumping. We did most of our swimming at Cultas Lake.

The best thing about camping is making the meals that we used to make on our canoe trips at camp when I was a girl. I love passing these traditions to my girls.
We made Pocket Stew and Egg in an Orange. Everything tastes better when you are camping!

Layer everything in the the tin foil. Potatoes on the bottom, meat, and the veggies. Seal it. Put it in the coals and let it cook. There are many variations...use your imagination.
