practice camping - Saturday, August 21

This is the set up for the tent/SUV. Cozy. Dave made rice and peas and hot tea for lunch. YUMMY! I think we are ready for the trip! We have a homemade car top carrier made by one of our carpenter friends Edd. He did a wonderful job. The rain didn't deter us!
Paul G. - note the Shelter Insurance mug Dave is using.

Canada - August 14, 2010

Shelby and Dylan visiting Gram and Gramp for the week. Dylan stayed to help Grandpa with the front deck and Shelby, Grandma, Dave and Lisa went to Prescott and Cardinal Ontario, Canada. Photos of Shelby in Prescott looking back toward Ogdensburg and the conning tower at the Conestoga wreck in Cardinal.

tent

Getting ready for our trip. Here is our tent and tent attached to the car. It attaches nicely and will keep the squitos out at night. We will "practice" camping in a few days. Doesn't this look fun!
