So we went camping on the property above Cory's parents place. It was a quick trip there and was an easy way to have a fun camping trip. We got to four-wheel ourselves up there which was a fun part that made me and my jeep happy. The trails that Cory used to ride on a lot in high school have grown over with a lot of undergrowth in the past few years so we did some bushwhacking on our hikes. We're all planning on buying machetes for the next trip though. The sticks we were beating at branches with did all right but a real blade probably would have made the job a lot easier. The only downside of the place was all the thorny plants. There were blackberry branches going everywhere and also little vines with tiny thorns that wove all over the ground and tripped everyone of the kids no less than 3 times. We definitely felt rugged even though we were pretty much in someone's backyard. Overall it wasn't a bad little bit of car camping. When you have to four-wheel in and cut your own trail it makes car camping a little less sissified in my book. Hopefully sometime soon me and Ellynn will get our own camera and have more pictures to put up. This trip had mostly pictures of Cory and Meagan's kids as we just copied all their pictures from their camera. All righty well that's about all for this time. Take luck!

that sounds awesome! i want to go four-wheeling now.
i think the fact that my airmattress kept deflating during the night also makes it less sissified. at one point i was crying in my dream because my hip hurt so badly. then i woke up and realized i needed to roll over.
see, these are the things of history that we need not forget. haha no offense elly. :P
