change in plans

Our family had spent time on Sunday scoping out a place for an overnight camp on Monday night.  We packed up our gear on Monday morning and decided we better stay put at camp because there was a significant amount of gray low lying clouds to our west.  Smart choice.  We spent about 3 hours on Monday afternoon in our tent--happy there were very few leaks (a little rain on the ground and A's sleeping bag was right against the tent wall so got a little damp).

We played cards, read books and just enjoyed the beautiful rain coming down onto our tent.  During the storm, Brad made some of the most tasty grilled cheese sandwiches I have ever eaten.  The rain let up and we hiked to the camp store to get out of the tent (change of scenery) and enjoy a candy bar.  Thank goodness for chocolate and plenty of warm, dry clothing.
