On the weekend of September7-9, we met our friends Joey and Sam (with children Cecilia and Mallory) of Olympia and Tracy and Dan of Portland for a two night camping trip. We planned on staying at Maryhill State Park but upon arrival there were no sites available. Luckily our backup site, Brooks Memorial State Park, was only 20 miles away and had plenty of open sites. We finally arrived just after 2PM and managed to find a single site that would fit three tents and three cars!
We had a great time camping - introducing Claire to everyone, meeting Mallory for the first time, watching the kids interact, catching up on everything, and just being outside! As always, we had many great meals and enjoyed the various park amenities. The park was mostly quiet (and surprisingly empty) although there was a bit of highway road noise audible from our site. Thanks to the dry summer, camp fires were banned which was disappointing.
We left around noon on Sunday and made a pit stop in La Grande where Claire played in a park for a bit. We arrived home at about 8PM very proud of Claire for completing her second camping trip!

Looks like everyone had a good time camping. Zach, I thought you were on a real roll with the bunny explosion! Claire seemed to really like the slide and the swing. Thanks for posting!
