#45 : Go camping, make s’mores

#45 of the 101 in 1001 challenge is to Go camping, make s’mores. Until last month, it has probably been 5-7 years since I went camping last. Before that it was when I was a Brownie & Girl Scout up in Ohio!

Mike, on the other hand, had only been camping ONCE in his lifetime! He’s also known for not being too happy in extreme heat, so I was a bit concerned if it would be his cup of tea or not.

Our friends invited us up twice in the past two months and so far, we’re turning out to love it! It’s a beautiful campsite right by Lake Lanier and we spend the day out on the lake and lounging around the campsite in the shade. We cook up a feast at night on the grills and over the fire, and have made it a habit to watch the sun set over the lake. Last weekend we went for the second time and it was SOOOO hot out at night! It was like trying to fall asleep in a sauna! We figure we’ll wait until it cools down some to go again, and that will give us time to find our own tent (been borrowing this one) and slowly build up our camping “gear.”
