Happy Campers

This is my third summer in the maritimes, and finally I had the chance to get out and experience the great outdoors.
After a final feeling of clean - I jumped into Gertie with the cutest carowner ever - and headed to the valley - land of apples and acadians.
time to set up the tent - I'll take care of the pegs, don't worry (this'll be easy) - I can't find any ground without rock!!! boo
Let's start a fire for the night.. what, no kindling?? hm.. thank goodness for fire starters (i AM the firestarter).. this'll work..
good fire- I'm tired.. and it takes just as long to put the fire out as it does to start it...
ahhhhhhhhh new tent smell - minus 3 and long johns.. ..
wake up - let's rough it, nothing but beans and eggs on an open fire. hmm.. damp morning - wet wood ..
grrrr.. show off neighbours with their sizzling bacon -
that's it - let's go to Wally World - half hour and 80 dollars later, we're at McDonalds - now we have our bacon.
drivin through wolfville - hmm.. found some kindlin!
wow -- this water is warm.. let's take pictures!
Can you believe that cyclist? that is some serious shape to tackle this hill!
was that a cricket or my car? let's go hiking.. this is nice and easy, even tropical - here's a flower :)
the rest of the trail won't be that steep.... or will it! a trail of sweat and 190 metres straight up~... great hike - feelin' good - feelin' thirsty!
got kindlin will roast! mmmm.. choco-marshmallows with hotdogs and beer..
Sunday - time to go home - or to hall's harbour - maybe some scallops, shrimp and clams...instead.
Can't forget to stop and say hi to Evangeline... feeling young..
and we come to the end of our valley tour --- next stop - chicken burgers and an early sleep.....
fun times in the maritimes..
