Famping

Returned from camping with the sibs and sib-kids this past weekend, 30 March - 1 April.  Had a great time.  There was a little drinking, some games, some grilling, some music, some tenting, and some roasting of marshmallows, but most of all, there was family.  We talked a lot and we gossiped a little.  In between, we took some pictures.

It started out bumpy.  I had reserved site A3 and A4 at Clear Springs on Wright Patman lake near Texarkana.  It's the same spot Glyn, Skye, Gina, and I camped in January 2011.  Figured it would be a great spot for meeting half way.  The day before we were to leave, the Corps of Engineer auto-cancel message came due to flooding.  I managed to get two sites near each other down the road a little at Piney Point on that same lake.  Getting the family there was tough.  Some of us had some difficulty....shhhhh, it wasn't me and that's all I'll say.

All arrived Friday night and departed Sunday afternoon.  The time between was a lazy and fun.  I'm very greatful for the visit.  Gina and I were going to stay another day, but being there without family and us wanting a free day prior to going back to work, we decided to leave also.   We agreed to stay in touch.

The title of this post is "Famping."  Renee called it family camping; combining the two, you get the title.  How original, eh?
