I LOVE camping (Braden, not so much) and we were eager to get on the road and find some secluded spot to do our fishing and camping this weekend. It was a super bleak day but we were all pumped to get in our new truck (that we pretty much bought on impulse to go camping with) and the boys rented a canoe.
Braden chasing away the ducks from our campsite. To be fair, we probably stole their sleeping spot.
"Hold it closer so it looks bigger!"
Also, that's what she said.
Highlights of the trip:
- Ben hates ducks so I used my chex mix to lay a little trail for the ducks to follow Ben into his tent. While he was in there, a duck almost went in after him (darn it! so close! haha).
- Being terrified of the tip-happy canoe since there were three of us in there and I (idiotically) brought my camera and smartphone ("to take pictures!" I said... yeah, I was too scared to even use them)
- Ben catching a huge fish, first cast in the canoe but didn't net it in time (the one that got away).
- It poured all night. I mean, ALL NIGHT. Braden and I got soaked and our boots filled with water :(
- Drying our butts off in the fire and trying to keep warm.
- Sleeping in the truck was just the worst. HAD TO PEE SO BAD ALL NIGHT.
- Ben caught like 12 fish during the whole trip. All over 12 inches. Not bad!
Still love camping though. Can't wait for more!
