camping, trip #3

last weekend our camping trip was fantastic!  we set up camp quickly, hiked to find our own private beach, pete took a swim, and we were settled.

we did have an interesting saturday night - the campgrounds (and dumpster right by our site) were visited by Hershey, a BEAR!!!  they can be scary, but apparently this one is a regular and really has his eyes on the chocolate (hence his name) (sounds like me!).  pete slept with one eye open, but i slept through the whole thing! gotta love earplugs ;).
