OK...sorry its not a solo...and we didn't bring the canoe....but I wanted to share a few pics of my last car camping trip...Lil One isn't too enthused about the canoe... once we get deep enough that she can no longer see bottom she starts to get very jumpy, so we haven't tried a canoe trip yet...but every summer around Fathers Day we take off for a couple of nights of Daddy/Daughter bonding around a campfire....sooooo...short story long...I got stuck working Fathers Day but made arrangements for a midweek scoot. Grabbed lil camper and called her school to tell em she wasn't comin in, we loaded the car and headed out to Albion Hills campground, June 2007.
Lil Camper and the "Palais Royale"...Love this tent....6"4" at the center...tonnes of room for 2 double air mattresses! A car camping dream!
A little fishing after dinner
Success!
The great paper airplane flying match....
A night around the fire...a few marshmellows....a full moon...an hour spent chasing fireflies....Magic!
Chasing Butterflies!
Daddy...look what I caught!
Apparently the frog population is very healthy! We caught these little fella's in transition...they had fully formed legs but still had thier tadpole tails! A marvel to behold for a 6 year old.
I am hoping to take her to McCrae for an overnighter in August to get her used to the canoe...I think she will make an excellent tripping buddy!...and she seems to catch fish better than her dad!
