Camping Trip

Monday, June 8, 2009
We took our first camping trip of the summer the last weekend in May. We stayed in a cabin in the Malheur national forest about 40 miles outside Burns. His friend owns the cabin and offered it to us. It worked out great since Ryan had to speak in Burns that sunday (Burns is a 2 hour drive from Bend). We left Friday afternoon and got to the cabin just before dinner. We started a fire and roasted hotdogs and smores the first night. Yummy. Saturday we did some hiking around the cabin and tried fishing at the nearby lake. We didn't catch anything but we also didn't go during prime fishing time or have the best spot. The kids had fun though and maxwell just loves to through rocks into the water. Saturday night I made my first dutch oven dinner, Chuck Wagon Casseroll. It turned out really well and was pretty easy. It was a nice weekend and was great to be outdoors and getaway. We are looking forward to some more camping this summer and will probably try out our tent since our kids did so well.
