Ive been busy with laundry and packing all day. I made a master camping list last year so I just have to go through it and check everything off.
This trip started as just DH, DD3, me and another couple...but now DD1 & DD2 and their families are going as well as a friend of the family....and DD3 has invited a neighbor girl too. So, we will have a small village this weekend.
I am little concerned about the grocery shopping this afternoon. I think I am going to do the shopping for everyone...which will now be a sizable bill...and they will pay me back their share...but it never seems to work out that way...hmmm
I am taking a couple of good books...I have a feeling reading time will be limited, however.
Ahh...but the fresh air and relaxation will be worth it!
Almost ready to go!

Our favorite meal is potato packets..........kids can help put these together easily. In foil ..........lay slices of onion on the bottom, layer on slices of raw potatoes, sprinkle generously with raw chopped bacon. Seal up the pouches and toss on the grill. No one will want anything else to eat.......but they will eat as many of these as you can cook. (if you hide some, they are great for the next days breakfast, just sit on the fire for a few minutes again)
