first summer campout

Hooray!  First camp of the summer was a huge success.  Four families, blue skies, messing about on the river and great cook outs, all made for the perfect weekend away, just a couple of hours drive from home.

The Deschutes State Park recreational area was fabulous camp site for a couple of our first time camping families - hot showers and flushing loos always help!  Fun games ranging from cricket, tennis, soccer and boules, with a little fishing (with two catches), and a lot of messing about on the river thrown in, kept everyone busy and happy.  Cold beer and hot chilli kept us even happier.

And of course, the icing on the camping cake is always the huge pile of s'mores that get eaten!  Bring on the next trip.
