Back from winter camping!


Hi gang! My apologies for being so quiet. I've returned from 2 successful camping adventures. The first trip was rather warm all in all until the last day when we were hit with a winter squall! I have some pictures and I shall endevor to post them soon. I got stuck several times in the snow comming home due to the heavy trailer I was hauling.

The second trip was much more intersting. First someone brought with a potatoe cannon made from PVC. Cannon really does describe it. 4 inch PVC pipe ignition chamber powered by hairspray and a grill igniter which narrowed down to a two inch barrel. It a good thing I'm not a any more!

We also set up a zip line down a ravine. The hardest part was getting the rope tight enough so that when you slid to the middle the rope didnt sag and lower you to the ground.

What would be a campfire with out smores!

I was so warm in my winter gear that I actually had trouble sleeping when I returned to the house becouse I was "cold".

Oh man... I am a fair weather person and I am sooooo wanting to go camping now! Awesome post glad you had fun.

A persons heart will tell you how they lived,and perhaps died But it can never tell how it loved.

one nice thing about camping in the winter is that there are a lot fewer people arround and you can be a bit more adventureous.

also the new sleeping bags generally mave mating zippers..hehe
