Calvin and Ellie Bryant: Camping trip

Last weekend we went camping with our new friends the Cheatham's (Warren, Julie, Troy, Talia, Mason). We went up to Ashton near Island Park and just found an off road in search of the perfect camping spot. It was so beautiful there and soooo quiet, which was much needed. We took a bit to set up camp and as we were walking back to get the food for dinner we noticed a surprise on the ground.....Bear tracks...everywhere! There were wolf and elk tracks as well. Just goes to show you should check your chosen campsite before you set everything up. We decided to stay there. The men had their guns of course which must mean that nothing will happen. I was fine through dinner and talking and then...it got dark. I definitely didn't sleep at all, and neither did Calvin but not because he was afraid of bears like me. It was also FREEZING! We couldn't keep each other warm at all! Lets just say it made me super grateful for my nice warm bed! The next day we had an amazing breakfast and then drove around to find the perfect tree to cut down for our friends school project. It was fun to see Calvin and Warren in their natural element haha. They got the job done quick and I could kick myself for not recording it! The Cheatham's have three little kids so one night and a day is about all they could handle so we headed home soon after but it was well worth the time. We had a blast and love making new friends. It wont be long till were out there again (hopefully when its a bit warmer or I have a better sleeping bag).
