July 18-20th Camping Trip

Post by hunterncruse »

So Darrel and I went camping with Dean and Lynne and had a good time. It rained Sunday so we were glad we were out of there.

I think you guys took the rain with you. We had a few sprinkles but nothing like what Darrel told Dean you guys encountered on the way home.

It was nice when we packed up Monday Morning. \:D/

YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.


DAILY THOUGHT:
SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKIES - NOT REALLY GOOD FOR ANYTHING BUT THEY BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE WHEN PUSHED DOWN THE STAIRS.

we went to Long Point State park in the Thousand Islands. It was on Chaumont Bay. Neither Dean nor I took pics. Jessie has a few on her camera but has not downloaded them yet. Liz has one that she really needs to share. I was thinking she may have posted it when I saw this thread but no such luck. As soon as Jessie gets her pics on the computer I will post some.

Thanks for the pics Liz. I am glad someone got a few of the campsite. The ones of Jessie are classic I will have to get copies of those to use for her Senior Yearbook memories pics. The saddest part is that she was the one who did the whole thing even to the extent of locking the cage. (She truly is Dean's daughter) :whistle:

Ben wanted to keep her in there. Darrel told him that there was a padlock in the camper. It was pretty funny. I'm sure poking her with sticks was going through his mind. LOL
