Day Family Campout

Jared and Angel had to replace one of their

vehicles...and was able to get from a private owner

a "15" passenger van...

With that blessing...they decided to go camping this 

weekend!  The campground just happens to be

only about 10 minutes from our home...

"Twin Bridges" Campground

They called us and asked if we would like to come 

by and spend some time with them!

BEAUTIFUL evening! Got down in the 40's while

we were there...but, simply BEAUTIFUL...

And of course...I just happened to have

my camera...smile

 Getting ready "foil" dinners

 Beautiful AUTUMN Evening!
