camping

I didn’t sleep a wink or more last night.
It is definitely a party campground with a seasonal crowd that abides in bedraggled trailers with poorly maintained additions. The closest bathroom was way too far away, and the one with showers is so far away you have to DRIVE to it.

But – the morning air is always an awesome feeling and we were going to make the best of today.

I actually very much enjoyed sitting down to cook and cooking over the fire this way. We had pancakes and sausage.

We had a family game of Bible Outburst.

And headed for the Lockport Cave and Underground Boat Tour.

Stewart didn’t get the memo that we were all going to be repping ButlerFilms today. He’s only the director…. (we’d told him.)

We had to wait for the 12:30 P.M. tour, so we poked around a bit first.

We finally did the tour and it was decent. I don’t rate it as a Do Not Miss like last year’s tour of Fort Niagara.

I honestly don’t know what it was we were in. Some old tunnels that the factory that had been there before had used to make its fire hydrants or something.

We rode a boat underground. So that was a thing.

We went back to Tom’s Diner for lunch. We had a fabulous meal. We DO highly recommend this place!

Back to camp. It was hot. There were some table games and some lawn games and some time at the play ground.

We had another meal over the fire and more desserts.

And I wore ear plugs when I went to bed!

We started the day by a family viewing of the new Christopher Robin movie at 11:35 AM. It was precious and I can’t wait to see it again.

We came home for lunch and to finish loading up the vans and off we went to a crumby little campground in Lockport. I’d waited way too long to reserve a site anywhere and was limited by who had tent sites with electric.

Live and Learn.

We set up quickly. Tabitha and Stewart are naturals.

We ate some yummy food cooked in this foil packs that Marie and I made up the day before. We would have had two cans of green beans but our stupid can opener was worthless.
