Gingers in nature-a visit to Camp Buffalo

It is late.  By the time this posts, we will be on to our next adventure.  Right now, I am multitasking-watching Netflix, updating our Garmin and blogging.

I've got a girl curled up next to me and a dog curled up on my feet.

It's good.

Today (Wednesday) we went up to see Marcus and Andy at Boy Scout camp.  It was family visit day where the scouts and their adults cook a meal for the families at the campsite.  Why not drive an hour and a half in rain to go?  

Worth the trip.  The kids got to explore a little bit of the campground.  We got to eat a great meal partially prepared by Andy.  We got to hang out and just be together with the other scouts and their families.  There were also the hordes of mosquitos, the rain, the mud and Kinley's temper.  But we won't focus on that stuff.  

Gingers in nature are pretty easy to spot most of the time.  Their fair skin and red hair make them easy to find.  
They like trees.

They are not shy when they know the camera around.

They like tents (like Daddy's new one).


Sometimes they try to be fast.

This tree again.

We went to the nature cabin where a couple very nice scout staff showed us their collection of animals.  Some of the stuffed ones they dressed up-like this gopher looking thing with the helmet and bowling pin.

They got out the corn snake named Bill and let all the kids pet him.

These gingers give the photographer a hard time by not looking at the camera all at the same time.

Then, they take off into the forest.

And, find the ropes course.





After that, it was time to corral the littles into Andy's tent.  It's like a pack-n-play with a lid!  The kids were excited because it was new.


Dinner!

Then, Andy got the pleasure of taking the kids back to the ropes course and taking care of Mommy's best friend, Kinley, for a bit.  A nice break for me and probably not one for Andy.

Got my photo with my boy.  Marcus is having a great time at camp.  

Forced the boys to pose for a pic, too.
