The spirits and the children danced as we relaxed for the night at one of our favorite camping spots. Check it our here:

With good company, and extra food & tents to share we enjoyed hiking, walking along in the creek, and staying up late partying with the boys. There were so many stars I felt recharged. Here is a good picture of the boys on a huge log, with their new found friends. 5 boys... sheesh!
The creek and the steep trails are what draw us to this magical place... And, sliding down the rocks on our butts into the water! Palu and I opted out this time. Palu lost a tooth (yikes), and Gabe saw a baby "water snake" and showed it to us.
Finally I got to see hotel whiskey whiskey, and share moonshine cherries with all. Cherish these memories already, and planning to go back the weekend after next.
