I had a ton of fun camping with my Shell Bell this weekend, she is the only girl I know who loves to tent camp as much as I do. Although, we did almost get struck by lighting, eaten by bats and swept away in a monsoon! I like to leave a little something behind for the next camper, it's usually a quarter on the picnic table or a deck of cards but this time we left the clothesline tied up.
Do you have any camping traditions?

We picked a great campsite. Few campers, close to the bathrooms, showers & swimming and pretty quiet (except for that screaming baby Friday night! Ugh!)
