Summer is here.
And with it comes yet another weekend of camping with fellow Calvin(ites). This year I changed things up and we held our camping weekend in July instead of August (July 7 - 9), in the hopes of maybe getting a fewwwwww more people to come out. We had a couple do just that which was nice. Below are some pics to enjoy if you want to : ).
We started out with a smaller crowd for the Friday afternoon and evening but those there had a good time. Some we already camping in the park on sites and came to join us for the evening fire.
The campfire is always the best time : )
Michael and Erik set up camp nicely.
Our spot and their spot.
At these weekends spontaneous coffee always shows up. Here we are gathered at Bill and Gwen's place : )
You'll notice I'm actually in a picture. Evert thought it nice to include me.
He even got a different angle : )
AND reminded me that I may not have as many hair follicles in my head as I used to : )
Note to self: Evert no longer gets to use my iPhone for pictures : )
Fred and Diana showed up on Saturday as well.
It was a great weather weekend actually, and the beach was cool.
Yet another picture of me : )
Gwen and Diana don't look too happy with whoever took this picture : )
Jeanette came this weekend as well.
First-time camper.
She got a picture of some different species of firefly we observed at night.
Her cute dog.
Lots of shells at the beach.
I'll end with lots of pics of our Saturday evening Camp Fire time.
Once again there was LOTS of wood to burn.
Erik roasts his mallows for s'mores.
And Jonathan and Nathan enjoy the glow sticks.
Weren't they meant for your kids, Nathan?? : )
It ended up being a great weekend.
Sunday we had a short service together and then packed up and/or headed to the beach.
Evert and Annet and Fred and Diana travelled to sites within the park to spend more time relaxing.
Until next year. : )
