Camping

This weekend we went to Whidbey Island with some folks from our Quaker Meeting. It was Brixton's first camping trip. The day time was great, with lovely scenery and company. The night time, well....we kinda struck out on that. It's all a learning experience though, right? And it sure makes you appreciate the modern plumbing and soft beds at home. And washing machines...we were only gone for two days and one night but there is an enormous pile of muddy, bark and sand covered clothing and bedding staring at me. Still- nothing like trapsing around from the beach to the woods.

All together we had 11 adults and 11 kids- pretty good ratio!

Unity liked roasting the marshmallows but she didn't want to eat them.

Gibson, Ruth and Unity, all aged four, use teamwork to move a giant log!

We had the second-best spot on the ferry.

Worn out.
