Camping Life

So you may be wondering exactly what we do when we go camping with friends......

Quite honestly, yesterday was a slow moving, didn't really do anything, kind of day.  We spent most of the day piddling around, setting up things. It isn't enough that we deck out the inside of our trailers, we have to deck out the outside as well. Apparently, that is some sort of unwritten RVers rule. Grin. So out came the light balls and strings, the lawn chairs, the wind chimes, coolers, end tables, grills..... Well you can name it and probably one of us will have it!  

We spent some time in the town of Council Grove (population 2182) yesterday.  In that small of a town, you can imagine that it doesn't take a heckuva lot of time to tour the entire town. We did go back into town last night for dinner. We ended up at a place called the Hays House. It was established along the Santa Fe Trail in 1857 by Seth Hays, who was Daniel Boone's great grandson. It is the longest continuously operated restaurant west of the Mississippi. And they serve an awesome chicken fried steak! 

Today was spent cruising around the lake. No floating on this trip as the water was waaaaay too chilly. Then tonite was burgers and dogs on the grill. Yummy.

So what do the girls do to while away the evening? Well, crafts of course! Here are Judy and Nancy working on a chainmaille bracelet.

And the guys setup a tv outside and watch a little Chiefs football!  Ah, the rigors of roughing it when camping out.  Grin.
