When We Went Camping 
Where we went:
See that little green island all the way up in the corner?  Thats where we went, Rock Island State Park, way the fuck up in Lake Michigan, which by the way is pretty cold, even in the summer.  It took us quite a while to ge there.  I think we were on the road 7 hours and then 45 minutes on one ferry and maybe 20 minutes on the other, but it was well worth it.  As you can see forst we had to get to Waskington Island and then we had to get to Rock Island.

How we got there:
   We borrowed Paul's van to get there.  This is Paul and my daddy loading the van.
 
 

   This is Melissa and I and our sock monkey's at the first rest stop.  I think its still in Illinois but its on the way.
 

   This is the ferry we took from the pennisula to Washington Island - our first stop.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

What we took:
   This is Paul and Marty and Karen with some of our stuff.  We had more!  We had to carry all that stuff to our campsite by the way.

Where we camped:
  This is our tent.  My sock monkey is sitting on my bed.  Karen Packard slept next to me where the orange bag is.  Then Marty slept in the front on the left and Melissa on the right.  It was nice and cozy  :).
  This is us in our tent in our jammies.  Marty, Paul and I, and Karen Packard, Melissa took the picture.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

This is all of us outside our campsite.  See the trees behing us?  Aren't they pretty?  On the other side was our own private rock beach.  We went out and threw stones into Lake Michigan in the morning.  Us on an island, what a great camping trip!  :)
