April 2012

Back to Blue Rocks Family Campground for our second camping trip ever, and for the first of many camping trips in the 2012 camping season.  It was also for my 40th birthday (am I really that old??) It dropped down to 29 degrees the first night, and snowed… We had a below-freezing rated sleeping bag, and sat around the fire for as long as we could before retiring to our tent.  To go to sleep in the tent, I had a layer of Under Armour on, a layer of thermals, a layer of sweat pants, a winter coat, a winter hat, and hand/foot warmers jammed every which place I could find!  Oddly, Cello slept in our sleeping bag for only a short time before working her way out to on top of the covers!  Crazy dog!  Luckily, the rest of the weekend was warm, and we had an enjoyable time.

We had to pack Cello her own chair for around the fire since during our first camping trip she “stole” Brian’s the first time he got up out of it!

Cello loved being in the tent!  We brought some of her “bed buddy’s” from home to keep her company 🙂
