Camping & Canoeing

This past Friday night, Andrew and I went camping with Clay & Lindsey for Andrew's birthday.  On the left you have Clay's vehicle carrying Jeff & Chrissa's canoe that they borrowed.  On the right is Andrew trying to clean out the cast-iron skillet after he cooked us all eggs and bacon for breakfast!






Here are the boys in their river clothes.  Stylish, eh?
I didn't get too many pics of the camping part of our trip because it was dark when we arrived and I was about to puke from carsickness.


This is where we stopped for lunch (ritz crackers with turkey & cheese, doritos, & dr. pepper).  I think this is the only picture of Lindsey, since she kept avoiding the camera.  As if we all didn't look fabulous?? ;)



The water was beautiful!


The boys testing the water and then plunging in.  It was quite entertaining to watch.  We have videos of them doing the redneck infinity pool plug :)



Did I mention it was a really really gorgeous day to be out there?  Good cool breeze, plenty of water flowing, a tad warm in the sun and a tad cool in the shade.  Perfection!



The ground looked like it was crawling!  These little guys were everywhere.




And last but not least our little froggy friend.  Frogs are so cool!!



He was just slightly stunned when Clay put him back down. But he hopped away pretty quick when I took his picture :) 

Can't wait to go next year!!  Although next time I'm using spray on sunscreen or someone is helping me out.  Ouch!

BEAUTIFUL!!!! We have not canoed the Buffalo in several years now...it's such a pretty river. I'm so jealous, but I'm glad you guys had fun!

Wow, it looks perfect! And it is just great when everybody has a good time. The rest of us will just have to enjoy the Buffalo vicariously.
