The Weekend At Cheaha

It was great. A lot of hard work went into setting up camp, but it was well worth it. Would have been better if we stayed another night, but we needed to get back for fathers day.

When we got there it was raining just a little bit, and the tents needed to be setup. So in a hurry the tents went up and the rain flies over the tents. The inside of the tents got a little wet, but I don’t think that it was bad. We also got a tarp hanging from the trees, so that we would have a place to sit outside of the tents in case it stayed raining.

With camp setup, I set out to make fire. We didn’t bring any firewood. Oh my! So I gathered up some old branched that were laying around in the woods. I also found a fat lighter stump, so I hacked at it for a while and got enough fat lighter to start it up. I had to keep feeding it fat lighter to dry out the wet wood so it would catch. Needless to say, it worked.

I know that you all do not want to just hear me ramble about what a great time we had. How much fun we had at the falls and swimming at the lake. So I figure that I could just show you some images that my wife took. Enjoy, let me know what you think.
