Camping Trip

So Robert and I went camping for our first time last night. There were definitely highs and lows of the trip.

Lows:
You had to drive 6 miles on a dirt/gravel road to get there.

There was NO running water so the bathrooms were sick.

No firewood for sale at the campsite.

It rained 80% of the time- including the entire night.

I had to pee in the middle of the night- shamelessly I did so 2 feet away from our tent praying no one could see me. I was not about to walk to the bathroom/woods in the dark.


Highs:
First we went to Boulder and met up with my old roommate Kim and her husband Chase. It was so great to see them! And we had really good food/coffee/beer. (Note: this is pre-camping)

It was sunny while we ate dinner.

We got to go on a hike.


Our tent was awesome. (Thanks Becca and Drew!)


A nice camping neighbor let us have some of his firewood after watching us try to start a fire with some sticks for half an hour. We looked pathetic but it turned out great!

Overall, fun trip. We will definitely be more prepared next time :)
