Winter camping


Jake has never enjoyed camping. He hates the cold as well. Poor kid had to combine both of those things he disdains two weeks ago. His scout leaders did a winter campout/backpacking trip. Jake came home smelling like campfire smoke and I've never seen his face so dirty. He got a bit sick when he got home. He said he was so worried about staying warm at night that he actually over dressed and got sweaty and then cold. But his new leaders aren't much for camping themselves, so this past weekend they decided to "camp" at a Hampton Inn and enjoy an indoor pool and work on the Duty to God booklets. Jake has never been so excited for a scout activity in his life! They had a great time!

I feel Jake's pain and I would love the second option ever so much better even knowing I had to don a swimsuit! My boys both love camping and so does Rick but I just don't get it. I have to go to girl's camp this year as a leader but we have air conditioned cabins so I will persevere!
