Camping in Dry Gulch

This weekend was spent camping up in Dry Gulch. My family, my mom, Tony's parents and our niece Summer all had a nice/hot time up there. I think we all got bored at one point or another. Not sure what happened to the fun of camping, but we seem to have lost it lately. The boat is so tempting on hot days. But, we had fun and relaxed a lot. Gracie did a lot of reading and hiding in campers. Thus I didn't get any pictures of her. Darn it.

Tony's dad was drawing a little bit, and TJ wanted to try his hand at it too. Here he is drawing a deer. I was trying to capture him with his tongue out...his concentration look, but he was moving it so much, I missed it. I love to watch him concentrate like that.

Tony and TJ shot .22 rifles for a while, until Tony accidentally locked the little .22...and that was that for TJ. Who'd of thought to bring the key? Not me! They got a lot of shooting in before however, and they both enjoyed it. It was funny to watch everyone jump every time a shot went off! The dogs didn't like it much either. lol

We went on a short little 4 wheeler ride. Here are Tony & TJ riding.

And Summer and I. I tried twice, but couldn't get a picture of her with her eyes open. LOL! And my camera was dying, so I didn't want to keep trying...she's adorable with her eyes shut still.


Woo Woo...good looking! Yep, that's my hubby and I love him lots. Obviously he was less than thrilled to have his picture taken, but he humored me.

Summer and TJ went on a Snipe hunt. They clapped their hands and hit sticks together trying to lure one in, but the hunt was unsuccessful. Next time!!!

Tony's mom even took a run on the 4 wheeler! She will kill me for posting these pictures, but it's just so fun to see her doing this kind of stuff, I had to share it. Sorry mom....still love me?

Yeah, she was a little nervous in this picture....which I knew she would be...so I had to capture it. hee hee

Look at that face! He was coming at me fast...trying to scare me, but I stood my ground. I know better than to honestly think he would run me over. He loves me too much...and who would cook for him? (yeah, I don't cook much anyway..but hey)

Lots of fun. Lots of reading! Which is great with me. I think we all had a good time...but I think it's time for a new place to explore next time.
