Labor Day Camping Trip

I am sad. Actually kinda depressed. We had our last camping trip of the season this last weekend. We went to the KOA at Livingston, and we really had a great time. Nothing too exciting, but just nice to get away and yet be at a campground with running water and electricity. That's the best. I love our camper, and we had a good time with our friends. The campground was fun--drawings for little prizes every 1/2 hour (all my family won something except for me!) and then a fun 'almost midnight madness' sale at the little store. That actually ended up being on Monday morning because the storm on Sunday night knocked out the power. I felt really bad for the people in the camping cabins--no power, no candles, no heat--and so rainy. They probably all just ended up going to bed with lots of blankets to stay warm! And I can't even imagine staying in a tent in that weather--yuck! Luckily the power came back on at a little after midnight. The store held the sale on Monday morning with more prizes, and Morgan won --again--this year. The little lucky duck won last year too! And they give out some pretty cool prizes. My friend Jane and I got some really cool pictures of the snow clouds hanging over the mountains on Sunday night. I'll post some pictures hopefully tomorrow night.

We did go up into the mountains to a few of the remote campgrounds--we were going to take a hike, but changed our mind when we saw the bear signs everywhere. No thanks.

I hope everyone had a great labor day weekend as well.

Hey you! So glad you had a good trip! Looking forward to seeing your pictures too!

I'm sitting here and all of a sudden started hearing this music. I couldn't figure out where it was coming from! I turned my head this way and that and oh yeah! It's from the blog!!! (Funny!)

I'm glad you didn't go on that hike.... meeting a bear could have put a big damper on the Fun and the excitement of winning all the prizes!
