Last Camping Trip of the Season...I Think

Two weekends ago we took our last camping trip of 2017 (unless, of course, the weather cooperates and we change our mind).  We were hoping for some "fall camping", as in frosty mornings, chilly afternoons--all day campfire type of camping.  What we got was the hottest weekend yet of our 2017 summer camping excursions!!  Thank goodness for air conditioners!  

We had called around to various campgrounds the days leading up asking about pool closures and such.  We were assured by someone who had no clue what they are talking about that this particular campground had the pool open and river tubing was still available.  Well, we pulled in on Friday afternoon, at 97 degrees, only to be told it was all closed and they had no idea who would've told us otherwise.  

Luckily the river was shallow enough that the kids could play in there for hours.  It ended up working out great!  Our sites were right next to the water and there was hardly anyone at the campground so we basically had a huge section of the river to ourselves.  Along with water balloons and water guns, we managed to stay cool and have a great time!

We're sad to see another camping season come to a close but we can't complain, we had great weather, great company and made some awesome memories this summer!  Can't wait to do it again next year!!
