I promised I'd post pictures of my recent camping trip with Amanda, Ashley, Bud, Makayla and the WonderWeiner. It wasn't exactly restful, although I did spent Thursday evening along with the WeinerDog. It was lots of fun though.
Here is home sweet home:

After setting up camp, we head for the beach. 84 steps down and we're there!

The weather was beautiful, the water pretty calm:

Ashley taught Makayla to skip rocks...sort of:
{{gwi:1470877}}
Skipping rocks was too hard, so we decided to skip Makayla instead. She just splashed, she didn't "skip". LOL

Amanda and Ashley liked the "sister time":

The kids found a "fort" and played a while:

We decided to have supper, then go into town. Amanda drove her own go-kart, Ashley let Makayla ride with her. Ashley drove too fast, I couldn't get a picture. Makayla says she's a "crazy driver". Here's Amanda:

We found this flower delivery truck in Ludington:

Also a mural on a outside shop wall:

The WeinerDog spent lots of time "guarding" his girl:

Finally, bedtime. Makayla staked out her place next to UmmMa, but we had to sleep with all the "babies":

Bud didn't even wait for bedtime, he fell asleep on Mom:
{{gwi:1470886}}
We put him into his own sleeping bag:
{{gwi:1470887}}
What an angel, right? He slept about half an hour, then spent the rest of the night crawling over everyone and jabbering:
{{gwi:1470888}}
Everyone left after lunch, so I was alone on Thursday, WonderWeiner and I had a nice walk on the beach and I noticed things like these rocks:
{{gwi:1470889}}
{{gwi:1470890}}
WonderWeiner was tired and I had to carry him up the steps to the top bench:
{{gwi:1470891}}
Ashley came back up Friday, and a storm was rolling in. We got a huge lightning storm on Friday night, but this sunset first:
{{gwi:1470892}}
She sat on the bank and watched with her boyfriend, Jason:
{{gwi:1470894}}
We went back to the tent where read my book while I cooked supper. Wait, aren't I supposed to be on vacation?
{{gwi:1470895}}
Saturday I took one last walk on the beach, everyone else had gone home. The storm had kicked up some pretty decent waves, but I swam anyway, one last time:

Now it's rainy and cold and I think camping season is over for the year. Sigh.
