Camping FTW?

Well, I went camping Tuesday and Wednesday and I have to say that I did have an enjoyable time while I was there. Pay close attention to that sentence however, while I was THERE. The car rides were a different story which I'll post in my other blog. ANYHOW, when we arrived in Rockville Indiana, four hours from New Lenox, we went for a swim at the lake just a short walk away. It was a very refreshing swim and afterwards we had a good night of talking around the fire, walking, and playing catch phrase. The next day was fun, though short. Four of the Six people that had been there since Monday left around eight in the morning on Wednesday, and I was awake the rest of the day after being woke up that early. I shot Joe's' BB gun for a while and it was really fun due to its' extreme accuracy. Before we left we had one last fire, although this fire was not like that of the previous night. We had about 2 gallons of gas in a plastic gas can on top of the fire starter. We lit the fire starter and then shot the tank which led to the gas pouring onto the flames thus igniting the can. It was awesome to see it burning that intensely, and it was even cooler when we put pop cans in the fire which proceeded to explode upon being in the fire for a minute or so. All together it was a fun camping trip but I can guarantee you that next time we go, I am definitely going to be in charge of supplies and food.
