Camping weekend

Michael and I had the pleasure of going camping this past weekend. We left Evan with Grandpa and Grandma and took our new tent trailer (well new too us!) and headed off to Cougar. From Cougar we went up to Lower Falls in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. It was pretty much way the heck in the middle of no where...but we had fun. Here are some pictures from some of our hikes/photo opportunities...


Beautiful Lower Falls...we camped on this portion of the Lewis River.


Another view of Lower Falls.

Langfield Falls

Big Creek Falls


The pictures above and below are from the Ape Caves. Michael decided after we took the guided tour to go back and experiment with his camera. Well...an hour later...he came back to the car with these two pictures. Pretty amazing for a completely dark cave!

Wow! What an amazing setting for camping. My husband and I love to camp and so does Isabel, although a weekend away while the kids are with Grandma and Grandpa sounds like heaven too!
