Camping!
Posted by mattgsilverAug 18
We had a great camping trip up in the Catskills. It was Marlea’s first time and she did great. Despite all the bear warnings, cooking meat and then not having any place to dispose of our trash, we managed not to get attacked. I think it was our dog, Rainy, that held them at bay. The campsite map was a bit mis-representative of the area since it didn’t show the main road that was running about 250 ft away from our site. We didn’t really plan on driving two hours to camp next to a road.
We had a good time none the less, and the food and company was great. The next morning we did a little walk around and then packed things up. Drove to the nearby town and had some ice cream and then drove on to Woodstock. It was almost as I remembered it, but I think they’re trying their darn-est to shed their hippie days. It was really, really hot.At least the drive back was painless. We made good time and got back just in time to get Marlea to bed.

What an exciting trip! As a Norwegian, I love to be out in the nature – nothing else is as recreational as that!
Btw; Thanks for the follow at Twitter

It’s always nice to get back to nature, I agree. I hope the next trip is even more reclusive!
