Camping with Cole



Cole and I took the dogs up to Poudre Canyon near Ft. Collins to enjoy some good old outdoor fun. Here's what it looked like.

Pick Cole up from school
Drive to Ft. Collins - only an hour - thank goodness
Set up camp - easy enough - thank you REI for easy tents
Drive to the river, play in the river, LOVED this part. Should have brought our camping chairs with us, but they were at camp. Humph!

Stop by corner store, eat 8 hour old hot dogs - they were pretty good - that's gross right?
Go back to camp
Make a fire - I can make a mean fire - right Rach?
Roast marshmellows
Watch fire until it gets very small
Hop in tent and send time whispering sweet nothings with Cole until he finally fell asleep at 10pm
I watched the stars from the tent window - It was awesome!
Then 5:30 a.m. wake call with the sun and we were out of camp by 7

It went by really fast but we had a great time.
