...saw something more rare than the black bear--a telephone booth! Every time we've been in Shenandoah we've seen at least one bear, this trip included. However, this is our first telephone booth. Rhett loved it.
... We took kid-friendly hikes. Even if it meant that I dropped a couple of tears missing the days of 10-mile hikes for me and Chuck. I know now is just not the time for that.
...Instead, it's the time for playing in leaves! And boy does this kid know how to do it.
...We ate some good food (this is Rhett hoping for another bite of a fire-baked apple)
...And we ate some not so good food (like this charred pig in a blanket). And just so you know, we didn't actually eat this. We ran to the store and got some fresh hot dogs to replace these.
...And since it was camping, we ate some granola bars. How do you love those socks-as-mittens? Is this good parenting or what: take your kid camping when you know it's going to be cold and forget mittens. Awesome, I know. I love how Rhett thinks this hat fits him.
...We went to Luray Caverns. This place was cool, despite how much it cost. If you want to go, don't forget your Giant card. It will save you money.
...And we had fun with a timer. But this was no ordinary timer. Oh no. When depressed, it would take FIVE pictures, not just one. After doing this a couple of times, we have a live-action flip book documenting this.
How fun! We've been meaning to plan a camping trip, but there is never enough time on the weekend when we have to be back for church on Sunday. Looks like you have a wonderful spot for camping. Did anyone decide to join you guys?
ReplyDeletenope. it was just us! and yes, it was our first time to this campground within the park, and we really enjoyed it. honestly, i can't imagine a spot we wouldn't like.
ReplyDeleteoh i just love the pictures! hubands + fall = 2 of my favorite things. :)
ReplyDeletethe phone booth is really cool. you know that pay phone in our home? well it hasn't rung for 1 1/2 years. . . until last week! spooky or what?
anyways, i can't wait for the day when our families will go camping together. because it so will happen!
So fun! You got some great pics too! How fun to live back east. Maybe one day I will get to visit!!
