Memorial Day Weekend '09 Camping Day 3

Sunday, we went to Castle Rock and then back to the dam to fish. Everyone went home that night and we stayed up their by ourselves with our kids and my brothers. It was kind of creepy at night, because most of the other campers left as well, so there were only a handful of people there. We made all of the kids sleep in our tent that night and even brought the shotgun in there. We had a really bad experience camping one time quite a few years ago. Some crazy guy that was all messed up on drugs came to our campsite and started swinging around a metal pipe. We called the cops and my b/f actually had to blow a shot off into the air to get the guy to stop. If the cops would have arrived any later, he may have had to shoot the guy. The cops told us he would have been totally justified if he would have too. So, we do NOT ever go camping w/o his gun.

Here's a bunch of our camping group at the bottom of Castle Rock by the Wisconsin River. A few of the people stayed at the bottom to fish while we hiked up.

My friend J and her beautiful little girl C

My little Trixter pissed off that we wouldn't let him climb higher with some of the guys and he couldn't just wander around. One wrong move and you could fall, which he just would not understand.

My Dare Devil, the b/f and our friend M

One of our many gorgeous views up there.

So there's my Memorial Day Weekend camping trip. Everyone had alot of fun and we can't wait to go again. I hope to get up there before Labor Day, but who knows about that. There's so much that I would love to do this summer, and I'm sure we'd do it all if money were no object, but unfortunately... it is. In this tough economy, no one wants to spend money on a new roof or siding.

I do have my bil's camera sitting right next to me ready to dl his camping pics. I'll share some of those with you later on as his camera is really nice and takes awesome pictures.
