Day 1

Got there mid afternoon after dodging the rain on the way. Set up in good time. And realized how cold this trip was going to be.

The guys were supposed to get there around 9 but they rolled in a nearly 11. We can just imagine how miserable it was to set up their tent in the cold and in the dark. Needless to say,we didn't help them.

Day 2

The day begin by greeting the late night arrivals. Cold and windy does not even begin to explain the weather. We enjoyed cooking our bacon over the hot fire while some enjoyed the Canadian Turkey bacon raw. We then found out how gourmet the guys menu was going to be. Indeed,much yummy food was cooked and devoured.

That night we did some fun pictures with long exposure and lay out by the water watching an amazing meteor shower.

Day 3

Again,the day begin by eating a massive amount of food for breakfast. The guys went fishing and the rest of us hung out at the site. We then later took a bike ride to go watch the guys fish but apparently as we were on our way on the bikes they were on the way back to the site. Lunch consisted of hot dogs and the guys made tacos.

Then a group of us took an adventure and drove out the the Sky Way Bridge. Stopping at the pier to take some really cool pictures. But it was extremely cold so we moved on. We found the town of Bradonton (I think thats how its spelled) and took some pictures at the river front and walked around for a bit until we realized there was nothing to do in town so we had an epic acorn fight and then headed for the beach. We found a nice part of the beach to park and walk on and stayed to watch the sunset and take more pictures. Hanging out on the beach was a blast.

That night we sat around the table and looked at all the pictures from the day and then played Spoons and Mafia.

Day 4

Pretty much started with site 188 packing up. Oh,and the tent collapsing on Carlos and Aaron.

This day also consisted of many small but unforgettable pranks. As Sam said “Next year,Its on.”

Although I have a feeling we won't wait another year to come back. After the ones who were going to leave that day packed up they moved their cars to our sites so they could stay and hang out for a bit longer. The day quickly flew by,maybe because we were all busy running around playing pranks,but sometime in the afternoon,the residents of site 188 decided it was time for them to leave. There was pranks played even as they drove away. Jimmy stayed even though he said he was going to leave,and we had a great dinner and enjoyed the warm fire. Jimmy eventually left,even though we all know he wanted to stay.

Day 5

This day was our last full day,and also a very relaxing one. Not doing much,with the exception of riding to the beach. It had warmed up so the bike ride was enjoyable and so was the opportunity to stick our feet in the water. We went out to dinner at a local beach side restaurant we had been to before and when we got back Alyssa and I watched a movie in our tent on my laptop.

Day 6

We had to be out by 11 so the morning started with packing up. I was developing a minor sore throat,but tried to ignore it. We packed up in good time and had some time to hang out,climb some trees and sit by the water and enjoy our last moments away from the hustle and bustle of life.
