July camping trip continued...

More photos!

This is Dierdre preparing her Hobo dinner to put in the campfire. It was a lot of fun. You cut up meat and veggies and place them in foil. Add some spices and a little oil, wrap up, and place on the coals. 20 minutes later you have a complete meal. The tricky part was getting the potatoes cut small enough and the zucchini large enough so that they finished cooking at the same time.


This is the last campfire we built to cook Sunday's lunch. It was way more than we needed, but Steve had a great time building it and using up all the firewood we had brought along.



This is a gulley behind our campsite. You probably can't tell, but there is a chipmunk crawling out the the top of the tree stump. It was a beautiful sight to see first thing when crawling out of my tent each morning.






This is another fun tree that had fallen onto a tree that was log-jammed. It worked like a seesaw. It was interesting to try to balance a person on each end. It was exciting when someone fell off because it sent the other person flying.
