Camping Completed

This is a normal Roberts campsite. For your viewing pleasure, I shall now proceed to walk you through it.   The white arrow identifies the sorriest looking tent this side of the Mississippi. One of the poles that hold the tent up had snapped in the middle, producing the sharp tip at the top. This, of course, caused the tent to loose its uprightness and it continued to sag (a la the Leaning Tower of Pisa) until we finally gave up and took it down. The yellow arrows indicate the bag chairs that we left sprawled all over our campsite and of course had to retrieve when it started raining at 4 AM. The red arrows are pointing to our two vans. We were only allowed to have one vehicle (other than the camper) on the site. But then, we were only allowed to have six people in the site, two. The campground host came by while Grandma was in the bathroom and when Dad told him we had seven because Grandma had come, he said, “Grandma? I don’t see Grandma. Enjoy your camping trip!” =) The green shows the very safe and strategic place we kept our suitcases… under one of the wings of the camper. Orange? Our tubes, of which we had four – three single and one double. Being the light packers that we are, we left the kitchen sink at home and settled instead for a Shop-Vac to blow up and de-inflate the tubes. Hrm… And last but not least, the blue arrow points to the lovely canopy over which Mom has sweated much sweat and shed many tears. … Just kidding about the tears part. Here are some other fun pictures from the trip: Don't they just make your mouth water? The statue of... Jessica? In the dank recesses of the cave, Jo plays Satan.
