Camping on the Lake

We spent last weekend relaxing at a lake front campsite with some friends.  They also brought a flotilla of kayaks so we were able to spend some time paddling on the lake.  

We took the youngest out on one trip.  We put her in her own boat but had it tethered to my boat.  She was unhappy.

 She wouldn't admit to being nervous, she said she just wanted to stay at camp.

After a few family trips on the water the guys decided to go exploring.  We initially set out to explore a small island that I noticed on the map but we ended up going all the way to where the Interstate crossing the lake.

 It was a long trip but it was it was well worth it!  One of the best views of the sunset at camp was taken from the water. . .

But then Cari sent me this one and proved that the view from the camp was just as good.

Throwing rocks into the lake was a favorite past time of our youngest daughter.  I think this is what she preferred over sitting in the kayak. 

 A few of the kids tried to scare each other with camp stories on Saturday night. . .

 Of course, camping isn't official until you roast marshmallows.

The weekend went by quick but it was great to enjoy it outdoors with our friends.
