David's First "Backpacking" Trip

Well, sort of. It was actually a walk-in site. We wanted to introduce him to backpacking without having to go too far. This was convenient, and we still had the effect (no campers within a mile of us).

Was I ever glad we didn't bring our good backpacking tent. David was treating it like a bounce house - literally bouncing off the sides of the tent.

David singing and having a blast. He turned to us and said, "this is really, really fun!"

David also discovered flashlights. He loved it!

Sleeping in - using his sleeping bag for the first time.

Eating breakfast.

Marshmallows - good breakfast treat.

It was a great camping experience for all of us, especially David. Hopefully we can get him out at least one more time this summer - in between our real backpacking adventures.
