Camping

On Friday we went camping. The Church here owns our own camp site in Cloudcroft, NM, which is about a half hour away from us. It is up in the mountains, and it is amazing how different the weather is up there. It had been in the high 90's in Alamogordo, and the highs in Cloudcroft were the upper 60's. We went up to camp with some other people from Church. They had a big Dutch oven dinner Friday night, and then Saturday we ate breakfast together and learned how to make bread in Dutch ovens and had a 72-hour emergency kit workshop. My friend came with me, and camped in our tent. It was nice to have some help with the kids. When we got there, it was really muddy, and we were expecting more rainstorms that night, so we set up the tent inside the big lodge. In the middle of the night it rained really hard for about an hour, and as luck would have it, we had positioned our tent directly under a leak in the ceiling. So we got a little wet even though we were camping inside!
