It's sure nice to just roll out of bed and walk to the bathroom in the middle of the night instead of CRAWLING down from the upper bunk in the small camper! The perks of having a 5th wheel - and I have found PLENTY of them!
Friday night the rain found us once again.....................we tried to sit around the campfire but soon the rain forced us to our campers. Evan and Kylan were spending the night in the 5th wheel so we got the bed set up and I made them get into their pj's. But later on, I heard voices outside and there were the little ones out running around - it had stopped raining and the fire was going great! So we all went back out to the campfire, turned the music up loud and watched the skies with all the stars for a long time!
Saturday morning I gave the kids the rest of their gift (the night before were the glow wands and the LED finger lites) which was a cute little fan that had lights in it!
The Savages were heading out late morning so they were packing up while I was taking pictures of the cousins!
Nothing beats playing in the dirt with a stick!
Glenn took Jill on a final ATV ride before they headed out and after a while, we see them walking back - did they run out of gas - did they have a flat tire? No, the ATV just stopped and wouldn't run so Glenn figured it was the transmission...........darn..............Robby graciously drove his car over to where it was parked and helped Glenn pull it back with a chain. Glenn tore it apart that afternoon and found out it wasn't the transmission at all but a large belt that had broke! Whew! I was just glad it didn't happen with Glenn and I when we were on one of our 30 mile trips!!
Of course it rained part of the afternoon - the kids played - Jessi and I read - it was a nice relaxing day! The 3 kids had fun trying to pull up dead trees by their roots!
We all had to eat in the camper due to the downpour that had soaked most everything outside but we had steaks to eat so who was complaining? Of course later on, the rain DID stop!! We had a great campfire again, more marshmallow roasting and enjoyment sitting by the fire!
Sunday morning everything was drenched from a heavy heavy dew - we moved it all out in the little bit of sun we had and by the time we were ready to head out around noon, most of it was dry!
Another successful camping trip - and Glenn and I can't wait to take the 5th wheel out again!
