We just got back from our 2nd camping trip this year. This time we made a reservation at Ponderosa State Park in McCall. It was the same group as last time: Scott, Spencer, and I, Lindsey, her 2 kids, Katie, and Katie's friend Cassie. This time was really fun. Scott's parents let us take their camper (thanks again!!). So we didn't have to deal with as many coolers or tents. Our fire started...no problems there. We did a lot of hiking around. Well, for us it was a walk, for Spencer, Natalie, and Alex it was a hike.
The wonder pets: Linny (Alex), Ming Ming (Natalie), and Tuck (Spencer).

All Natalie wanted to do was play with bugs. She brought up her bug collector kit to find some. We found a whole bunch of one particular kind of black beetle. It may not have been an actual beetle, I don't know. They had really long antenna, and longer legs than I think beetles have.
I was too scared to take the lid off, for a better picture. And yes, she did play with them...not just look at them. For awhile, she would grab one out, put it next to her, and start scooting off, and wanted it to follow her. Of course it wouldn't, so she would have to go back, grab it, and put it next to her again.
The first bug that we found for her ended up crawling away. At that time, she only had the one. She was so upset when we couldn't find it.
When she lost it, she sat on the ground, curled up in a ball, and just cried. It was so sad:( After that, everyone went searching to find her another one.
Katie and Cassie got the tent, while everyone else stayed in the camper.
Walking around town, is also a favorite pastime while camping in McCall. Katie and Cassie bought new sarongs, and Spencer decided to wear it:)
