Camping in the Mountains

This weekend we took off for our first adventure camping.  We drove about 45 minutes to the BEAUTIFUL town of Coeur d'alene.  We put up our tent at a small campsite between two mountains near Lake Coeur d'alene.  We arrived around 5 and snagged one of the last few campsites available.  We pitched our tent and headed back into town for the grocery store.  We roasted weenies for hotdogs and made the best s'mores ever!  The weather was beautiful.  At night it was a LITTLE chilly!  It was about 75 degrees in the daytime.  I forgot my camera so I don't have too many pictures, sadly!

This weekend just happened to be the 25th annual Car d'alene.  They only think there are rednecks in MS.  Just saying, we saw some pretty interesting people.  The car show is very cool though.  There are people that come from all over with their antique cars to display at the festival.  They have car auctions too!

We saw lots of this...

ALOT of this...

and even more of this!

We had a wonderful weekend.  Joseph even went swimming in the freezing cold water at the city beach!

Wish we had some of that Mississippi heat!  Next weekend: Hoopfest
