What a blast! I'm still recovering! From the minute we got to Leisure Camp Resort it was on. Lins-Vain and I were able to camp right next to Kensley and Tina with Olivia and Brian right next to them. Dustin and Harris were to sites to the east with their kiddos but close enough for us to yell back and forth.
We immediately set up camp and began cooking. The beer was already cold and the spirits were high. We had smores using Dustin's fire since Vain was having technical difficulties. But he prevailed and we made more smores so he wouldn't feel bad that we didn't use his fire.
Dustin and Harris' kiddos sang for us and Kensley being the superstar that she is was their backup. The night was cool and calm.
Next morning, Kensley made killer breakfast tacos of migas with chorizo, cheese, and chili. Then it was off to the river and sit in the water for the entire morning up 'till lunch. Seriously. We were thinking of tubing but it was just to relaxing to just sit in the river and drink cold beers. The day trippers were starting to filter in and Abby-David, Steve-Carole, Jim-Peggy, Ryan, Kevin-Gina all had an opportunity to stop by eat, drink, and mingle. We briefly stopped soaking for lunch and then resumed to the water. Nearing dinner time, Harris and his excellent smoked pork definately made the whole trip. It was finished in minutes. Smore making was the highlight of the rest of the evening and we didn't turn in until 11:30 pm. It sounds early, but remember, this whole day was like a marathon. One more day could've been good...but no more. My bed was calling my name. SWCA Camping Retreat 2009 was a success!!
