Ron was able to leave work a tiny bit early and we got a great start setting up. We were quickly visited by a camp ranger, warning us about some very aggressive bears in the area. She reviewed the rules and assured us that they would patrol for our safety. Well, that's a good way to start! Two weeks later, we found out that the rangers had to "destroy" the bear because of it's threat to people. Guess they were not kidding.
Speaking of wildlife, last year Amy swore on her life that she saw a mountain lion near the Pepacton Reservoir as we drove to Margaretville. We asked the rangers about mountain lion sightings. The "official word" is "bite your tongue."
Trying out the new EZ Up. Chance of rain 40%.
I think this is a good luck canopy, with no rain for the weekend!
Day 2: Fishing at Big Pond. We did not catch ANYTHING, other than these pictures of nature:
Beaver Lodge
I seriously took about 10 pictures to try to capture a school of fish jumping.
This was the only one that worked!
Camping season is official with the first peach cobbler of the year!
