Camping with boys

This has been a fun summer with my nephews - we've had weekly overnights all summer and that has given us more time to explore and play.

One of our adventures included a 2 night camping trip in the White Mountains. We got to the Lafayette Campground and setup our tent and tarp right before the heavens opened. Having a fantastic tent that keeps everyone nice and dry - priceless. Lafayette is a lovely campground with a river that ran right by our tent - the only downside is traffic noise - but it was a great location for our first time in the mountains with the boys. Activities included exploring the river, hiking to explore waterfalls and caves, stories by the fire, etc.

And I thought I was a good aunt... you two take the cake! And speaking of cake, happy bday! I have an Aug bday too & also celebrated for most of the month... lobster was my celebration of choice!

BTW, you and Howard Zinn share your day. I have a number fetish & remember him whenever I see 8/24 on the clock... I'll add you to the well wishing & sending of good karma!

Great pictures of NH with the boys. I had noticed the flume ticket in one of your other works! Love that place! xox, Maria
