Family campout at Pineview

Camping is not my favorite outing...as all my kids will tell you. In fact they took turns bugging me and saying, "I hear you don't want to go camping with the family." Just wait until they are 66 and they find out that what goes around comes around! Anyway, my kids talked me into going for two nights and 2 1/2 days. I was not looking forward to sleeping outdoors and especially in a tent so we took our pop up trailer even though it has no connecting lights for the truck and a trailer that needed lots of work in order to actually pop up. You would think I did the work but I didn't, I just watched the guys work. They handily put up a tent for Cheryl and family and then the pop up trailer and it worked just fine. I was surpisingly very comfortable. It was great fun being with the family around the campfire and being in the boat was really a double treat. Garn and I even rode on "Super Mabel". Sean was nice enough to just give us the thrill ride and not throw us off into the Lake. Sean and Justin's family are very familiar with the lake and water sports so they gave us a great water skiing show and Super Mabel wars. All in all I give our trip an A+. As far as I know, no one got mad, got hurt or was even disgruntled. Well, maybe Jonathan got a little wee bit disgruntled. Way to go Chilcotes! I am so proud of you. Whoops, there goes that pride thing again. Anyway, I love all of you. Thanks for being such good sports and showing me that camping can be somewhat FUN!
