My camping trip went well.
It rained alot and the teepee funtioned very well, even with high winds and hard rain i only got a few drips inside. I havn't made a rain fly for the top yet and used a floor mat from the car. The door also has some work to be done, it funtioned but it turned to be kinda a pain.
Friday night my lantern caught fire. I should have replaced some seals in the preheater but thouhgt i could milk it till i got the parts. Guess i was wrong, now i have to get an order together. I'm not too pissed, its a Petromax and i have used it heavily for 10 years. Most Coleman lanterns only last a few months.
Saturday night is a blur. Must have been those 2 cases of beer i drank that afternoon - evening.
Sunday i rode the kids around on the bike. They loved it! The roads were muddy and my tires are bad so i was really really carefull and kept the rides short.
Sunday night was our marshmallow battle. Than our hot potato contest with eggs, which turned into an egg battle/chair wrestling match. Long story!
Monday was clean up day. We make sure we leave nothing behind.
I have a few pictures i will be posting. Most pics i took have freinds and their kids in them and i refuse to post pics of kids online.
