Camping with Jeanne and Norm - June 21

Peter's step dad Norm owns property just north of HWY26 near Banks, Oregon. We had never been out to visit it, but he's been doing a lot of work lately, clearing out areas for camping and constructing a sturdy bridge over the creek. So we met Jeanne and Norm out on the property and camped overnight. We helped build a fire circle, roasted marshmallows, and spent time with Peter's family.

Pete's sister Ruth and her family came, as well as Norm's daughter. So we had a good crowd for exploring the creek and discovering salamanders. The girls all had one complaint- this trip wasn't long enough! So we need to plan a longer time to really explore that creek.

We had lots of fun with you too. Norm said "those guys can camp with us any time." Thanks for cutting up those delicious strawberries.
