A friend convinced me to rough it for a couple of days during the Memorial Day Weekend. We went camping on short notice, and of couse forgot a couple of items needed to make the trip a better.

• mats / tarps for under and over the tents

• real camping chairs and a table

• More drink

• insect spray

• Something to read during the rain

• a cot or air bed to sleep on

• Electric lantern

• Paper towels

That's the real short list off the top of my head,  - could look back on it and see what's needed for the next trip. D

on't pitch a tent in the cul-de-sac .

Over all it was fun, and the lake was nice and clear down to about 2 feet. Everybody was cordial to each other with no drama. Tent tour was interesting, A play on a doctor and his patient, a poker / magic show and and Beer Pong get mickey drunk. So food was some what  communial, the food was the highlight  cooked by George.

The small tour through the camp site showed the river also, and seeing the river site showed how much more spead out that site was the lake was pated in and everybody was closer.

One other note  A poker game  broke out  for at least the two nights I was there.
