So after Friday I had to ride the bus home and skip cross country to go camping. We left soon after I got home and had an hour long drive to Rocky Gap, the campsite. We unpacked and got firewood. For dinner we had hotdogs cooked over the fire, and chips. Katie brought Tales from the Crypt and she read us a story before we went to bed.
When we woke up on Saturday Aunt robin, Uncle Dave, Isaac, and Andrew were all in the next cabin because they got there late at night. For breakfast mom cooked us bacon and pancakes. Soon after Andrew woke we all went into the forest to a patch of trees we call the drunken trees. We called them the drunken trees because the trees there have twisty and curvy trunks near the ground and they are easy to climb. A lot of them grew close together there and it made a ceiling of leaves.
Afterwards we went to the lake. I swam with my cousins for a while before I went out on the canoe with my mom. We got back and we climbed in the trees again. This time we actually made a game where we pretend we were in a cave climbing on rocks. Some people would be a lump of rock on the floor. The others had to keep climbing and could not touch the ground. The rock was very thin, so if you touched the ground it would break and lava would pour out into the cave and you would die. The more noise you made the lump would crack. If the lump broke everybody that was a rock represented lava and had to run and tag people. The climbers had to run out of the cave to survive. (back to camp). Then we got more firewood and had corn and burgers for dinner. After dinner, right before Katie told her story a skunk came in our campsite! We had to retreat into our cabin for the night. In the morning the skunk was gone and we hiked a trail before saying goodbye.
Bye.
