What we did this summer:

It’s the age ole question one that causes you to think on how you spent your time while not in school…

Unlike other summers where all of our time is spent getting ready, doing and cleaning up after a faire we had time… time to clean up the back yard. Time to go camping. Time to do swim lessons, summer school and internships.

We went camping (well Miss Bee and I) a grand total of four times… Once to the Russian River with Grandma, Sparkles, Froggy, and Sparkles BF… just for the weekend but the kids had a great time playing in the river and just relaxing, it was really HOT that weekend but still the river was great fun. The next camping trip involved friends and Miss Bee and I again to the river and with more kids (two god children and one YOTC) we had a fire both nights, good food and great company. Then Grandma, Sparkles, Froggy, Miss Bee and myself packed up for a week in Yosemite!!! That was great fun! We managed to hike up to three waterfalls: Bridalvail, Vernal and Yosemite falls the hardest one being Vernal but we made it all of us and Miss Bee hiked like a champ! We also hiked to thru the Mariposa meadows and up to Sentinel dome the second highest peek it was wonderful! Now we have to get Grandma’s camera to give up the pictures! Technology doesn’t like Grandma very much it hides things from her… or so she claims. The last trip was the three-day-weekend Miss Bee and myself went up to Yuba Gap in the Sierra Nevada mountain range and set up the site, Grandma and Froggy joined us Saturday after his football game. Then my sister and Brother-in-law joined us for one day also, it was a really great weekend!! We will have one more weekend in Oct we will spend the weekend at Apple Hill. GREAT Fall fun!

Camping is one of my fav things to do for me its relaxing. We play cards, just sit and read, just sit, get away from stuff…
