Kids in Hocking Hills

Kind of late this year, but we had a great weekend after the rain passed on Friday afternoon. We were back in Hocking Hills, but we went from 4 dads last year to about 10 this year! This was Cassie’s first year on the camp out, she was very excited and had a great time. We hit Old Man’s cave again this year, and then campground we were in had some Halloween stuff going on all weekend. Dance on Friday, trick-or-treating on Saturday. Click the pic to see more from the trip.

Ava stayed up late on Saturday, and we went through the Haunted Forest. It was actually pretty well done, very believable and she was pretty darned scared.

 

Dad’s Camping Trip, 2010 Edition

Lily, Ava and I took another camping trip with friends, this past weekend, and had a blast! This year we did Hocking Hillls, and had a lot of fun. We hit Old Man’s Cave, which has some pretty steep drop-offs and then Ash Cave which was nice because the kids could just run around and play in the dirt.

We stayed at a KOA campground, and the Gem Mine was pretty fun! Bought a bucket of dirt, then all of the kids found their gems. For breakfast on Saturday, they had a “build your cereal” bar and Ava had some cocoa puffs with skittles; yum!!

Dad’s Camping Trip

Did a camping trip to Carter Caves with a couple of friends this weekend, had a lot of fun! First time I’ve been camping in (at least) a couple decades and the girls had never been. We did a cave tour, short hike to a natural bridge and did some late night dancing!

Girls did great on the drive up and back, Google did not do so well. The directions took me through gravel roads, a creek bed (!!) and (pretty sure) where they filmed Deliverance. I took 64/75 back.
