Camping Trip

Friday afternoon, Stephanie and I headed up the mountain to Hurkey Creek. The closest town is Idyllwild where we spent out 5 year anniversary. We arrived around 5 p.m. and Brad and Jenn already had their 5th wheel set up.

When we got there, Brad and Eric were out for a short mountain bike ride. Friday evening was relaxing, sitting around the camp fire talking till around 10 p.m. or so.

Sabbath morning we got up, made breakfast then Brad, Eric, and I went for a 5 mile ride. I have not been out in a while so I was quite tired. We got back to camp, relaxed some more then started to make lunch. A few more people showed up for lunch, Duncan, Mike, Jeff, the Gustafsson's, Joe and his wife, and Joe's friend Chad. After lunch, all the guys, minus myself, went for the 10 mile bike ride. I was just too tired and wanted to relax.

The afternoon came and went along with another great day of camping. Most of the day visitors left late afternoon while the Gustafsson's stayed till about 11 p.m. Brad, Jenn, Stephanie, and I stayed up a little longer then decided it was time for bed.

Sunday was relaxing. Breakfast, lounging, a short bike ride with Brad, more relaxing, then packing up our stuff to head home. We finally left the campsite at 3:15 while Brad and Jenn stayed for one more day. Brad's birthday is tomorrow so this was his weekend:)

All in all, it was a great relaxing weekend with good friends. We hope to do it again next month when we can all go and camp.
