Camping...again

The kids and I took a quick trip back to Aspen for a one night backpacking trip last week.


The St. Croix river is still high, but lower than our Mother's Day trip

Ava got to come this time! 

We actually needed my rain tarp this time!!

Site #3 this time - our new fav. It's right on a steep ravine with trees perfectly placed for a hammock hanging over the drop. 

Yelling at the rain to stop until she goes back in the tent.


Laura drools when she sleeps :)

Sillies


Kids went exploring down the ravine.


Ava worried about her little people getting eaten by the wild turkeys. 

We also saw deer. At night, I heard a raccoon (in the vestibule of the tent possibly), owls, and coyotes.


Cozy ones



Creek exploring 


Good fire, Adam!


Pillow fights and wrestling during a rain break


Brrrr...creek is cold


Hi goofball


Waking up is so hard


That blue dot is us



"Come back little people!"

The pictures make her look so happy, but she actually spent most of time unsettled. Either wanting to explore too far, whining on the leash, or whining asking to go home. She might not be coming next time. :(
