Camping

We had a great time using our new camper. What's crazy in Alaska is that there are so many places that aren't open yet. We had a tough time finding a spot but ended up driving about 2 hours north near Talkeetna and camping along the banks of the Big Su River. It was actually  the perfect spot. Chloe was in heaven. She was able to swim for 4 hours, then roll in the dirt/sand, fetch sticks, and then go swimming again. I was in a pretty good mood  too. We had every every type of weather. It was sunny, it hailed, it rained, it was windy. Thank goodness when the hail came all we had to do was hop in our little camper and stay nice and warm. We went with two friends, Abbey and Kyle. We thought it appropriate to take them out the first time since Abbey is 20 weeks pregnant and could really appreciate a warm bed with camping. We had camp fire pizza's, explored the river, played bored games, and bs'ed around an awesome fire. It was a first of many great outings. Here are a few pics!!
