We took one last camping trip to Chain o' Lakes. The weather mostly cooperated. It started raining Friday on the drive to the campground. It rained enough to make the ground muddy and to make setting up the tent mildly annoying but we were still able to have a campfire and roast hot dogs for dinner. Evelyn and Jameson didn't seem to mind the rain.
Saturday was a beautiful day. We had egg in a hole for breakfast and then once it seemed like most of the campground was awake we let the kids ride their bikes.
We stayed on the primitive side which had less car traffic and a big oval perfect for biking.
Before lunch we went on a nice hike.
Then after lunch we walked/biked to the one of the camp playgrounds and afterward got popcorn at the camp store.
For dinner we made hobo pies. Instead of using firewood we used charcoal (a trick we learned from my dad) and Nate couldn't get over how easy it was.
Instead of making s'mores for dessert we made campfire banana boats. They turned out good, but we decided they could have stayed on the fire a little longer to get more melty.
Sunday morning cooler and less sunny. It started to sprinkle so we moved breakfast under the screen tent.
It never rained very hard or for very long so we were able to take a walk to the other playground and even let Evelyn and Jameson ride their bikes while Nate and I packed up the car.
Stopped for ice cream on the way home to cap off a fun weekend.
