Camping fun with Griffin!

While Erin and Nickey were enjoying their time in Athens cheering on the Dawgs,
Artie & Susan (Grandpa and Mimi) got to spend a long weekend camping with Griffin.
What a fun and busy weekend we had!
"The Green Cabana" (out-house) in back saved long
trips to the bath house, especially late at night!
 
Camper from across the lake.
We went fishing off the dock...


And Griffin caught the first fish. There really is a fish on that line!
Griffin actually caught the most, even though none were big enough to keep.
I think the big ones were hiding.
We went on a hike - the Swamp Bay Nature Trail.
The trail was actually one way, but it was really pretty there & back.
We had to know secret passwords at strategic places along
the path. Griffin was the gatekeeper!
 Even Shiloh hiked with us!

Shiloh is as much a camera hog as Griffin!
Griffin and Grandpa threw the football...Good catch!
We went searching for a Geocache, which was pretty hard to find.
Griffin took a silly band and a slinky from the box.
Grandpa cooked breakfast and supper - yum!
Every night we had a campfire - it was really cold!
Warm fire and video games!
We cooked s'mores, banana boats and even roasted hot dogs.
Griffin ate three hot dogs!
We put together a 300 piece jigsaw puzzle,
even though 2 pieces were missing.
There was a full moon and Grandpa took some really cool pictures!

Can you tell we had a blast? See ya later!!
