Rain, fog, and new tents from Omma...

After raining all day Thursday and into most of Friday, the weather cleared up just in time for us to pack up our van and head out for our Fall Cub Scout Campout. The Weather Underground website promised me clear skies and starry nights. As luck would have it, this past summer Omma bought Kenny a new tent for his birthday! One that sleeps six instead of three and provided that extra protection from the elements...just in case!

After not much effort Kenny and Jessica finished putting up our tent and thank goodness for the new tent because the rain trickled all night long and not a drop of rain ended up in our tent!

The campsite we had was a bit away from the nearest flushing bathroom. Port-o-potties were closer by, but a bike ride to civilized toilets were the only option for me! Thank goodness the kids didn't mind being escorts! Especially late at night in the cold foggy rain!

Nothing is better than waking up to Hot Cocoa and Ziploc bag omelets!
