This weekend was the 2nd annual Knight/Wiessner/Pinkster family campout at Yankee Springs. We get Alex out of school at about 2 on Friday and I took a half day off, and we headed up a bit earlier than last year so we didn't have to set up in the dark. We were greeted by a nice rainbow arching over the entire area as we got there, and we got set up with plenty of daylight and had dinner at the site. We were on an asphalt slab in this particular site, next to John & Steph, and right along the channel from the lake. It was clouding up as it got dark, and at around 9 or so it very abruptly started pouring as we all sat around the fire (which went out). So everyone scattered to their respective campers and called it a night. It rained for a couple hours, the first time it has done so since we had the camper roof fixed, and it seemed to hold up well. All was dry inside. Saturday the kids all played together at and around the campground all day, including pulling and old disarded tire out of the lake, and finding a dead fish. I also got some caching in with Marve and Ric and John, all out on a bike trek of a few miles to get two caches in the woods. Saturday night, Judy and Neill surprised us by taking the kids to their cabin for a sleepover (letting Beth and me have a night of peace in the camper); they were gone until late Sunday morning. Sunday we all packed up and hit the road around lunchtime. Overall it was a very nice weekend. Alex missed his soccer game on Saturday, though.
