We camped at Watkins Glen State Park last weekend with 6 families from Randy's work. We had a great time. There were 10 kids in all from Henry at 1 to Alex(andra) at 12, and they all played together really well and had a great time. Friday night we got there just in time for Randy and some friends to set up our tent and screen room before the rains came down. To say it poured is an understatement. And it kept raining hard, till about 3 in the morning. We had borrowed Aunt Kathy's tent and it did very well keeping us dry (for a tent :)). We decided to eat out that night due to the rain and then here we are trying to keep the kids from touching the tent and to go to sleep. The next day was beautiful!! We had a great breakfast, the kids played at some of the parks, we hiked around all the really pretty waterfalls, went for a swim in the pool and had campfire that night complete with smores. It was a lot of fun.
This pack saved our lives this weekend!! It kept Henry very happy while Randy did all sorts of things - cook breakfast, hike, take our tent down and pack our things up. Yeah to the pack!!
Here are Max and I taking a little break on our hike of waterfalls.
There were dozens of waterfalls on our hike. It was beautiful! All of us really enjoyed it. here is a picture of a falls (and bridge) and then Randy, Henry and Alex over top of it.
There was no shortage of girls older than Sophia(there were 6 to be exact) for her to hold hands with as we took our hike. She loved every mintue of it. Here she is with Clari and Alex(andra).
The long winding path wore Henry out. Randy was a trooper and carried the little guy the whole way. We each got to carry a baby that way. :)
