We're back from the 9th annual Wiessner/Pinkster/Knight/etc family campout. This year we were again at Michawana in Michigan, once again we rolled out as soon as possible after the kids got out of school (later than we wanted, but we made it). We were also light one kid this time, since we did not bring Alex with us. He chose to go with the youth group to Jr. High Journey. The Bells returned the favor of dealing with a kid and a camping trip, since Sam also went, picking up Alex and delivering him to the church so they could head out to Indy on the church van. They left Friday afternoon and returned Saturday evening, and the Bells kept him overnight and got him to church the next day as well. The rest of us got to the campsite fairly late Friday night, setting the camper up in the dark again per usual for these campouts. The family group has expanded again this year; in addition to the usual suspects and the Wagenaars and Bruins there were also some friends of the Pinksters and several more Wiessner cousins and families. You really couldn't ask for better weather for the campout either; it was sunny and warm all weekend and barely chilly at night. Saturday the zip line was open, but there was enough of a crowd that you only got to go down once. Things got a bit slow on Saturday afternoon so I took the girls to Moo-ville Creamery in Nashville; a place I've wanted to try out ever since MLive rated it #1 ice cream place in Michigan. Well, I wouldn't say that. They do have a lot of farm-y stuff for little kids, and a larger cafe type area than most places, but overall for what we were looking for, the ice cream wasn't as good as Plainwell. We packed up and headed home Sunday morning since we needed to pick up Alex, so we skipped the Walldorf this time, just as well since there were about a billion people in the group and not a lot of table space. Today was also the church picnic, so at least Alex got to go to that.
