Slice of Heaven

Camping Season has started!

We enjoyed our first camping trip of the year this past weekend. We went up to Gifford Pinchot State Park in PA (actually made the same trip the exact same weekend last year!). Though the forecast was for rain the whole weekend, it actually rained very little.

We did lots of bike riding (lots of little trails around the lake) and Eric and Dennis did some actual mountain biking. Dennis taught Eric how to jump logs and go up steep hills-Eric worked on the same hill for about 12 tries!
We had a Friday morning adventure with this young man, but thankfully everything turned out alright.

Leah LOVES camping.

Other fun camping activities included: frisbee golf, roasting giant marshmallows, fishing, playgrounds, tossing the frisbee & football and otherwise relaxing.

This was our little bike ride to Boulder Point. Nice stop for a snack.

We also took a little drive to a nearby Amish furniture market. We enjoyed taking pictures of some upcoming projects that Dennis wants to take on-the main one being a chicken tractor. On the way there we stopped at a yard sale. It was mostly junk until I turned the corner at a long table, looked down and saw a crate full of large mason jars with zinc lids. Four of them were the 1/2 gallon size. I love these to store grains and other things in my pantry, and the zinc lids are usually pretty hard to find affordably. I got the jars/lids for $1 apiece...20 of them!
