Jeff’s 50th at Bartlett Lake

For our friend Jeff‘s 50th, we went camping and turned it into a long weekend. The weather was gorgeous and also very frightening at times, which always makes for a memorable trip. What really made it memorable was all the wildlife that we encountered. It’s too bad I wasn’t quick enough with the iPhone on capturing it all, but there was bats (okay, a bat), a family of raccoons, a couple of skunks, some ducks, and vultures. Oh, let’s not forget some of the dogs that were with our party.

We secured our spot with 3 RVs and numerous vehicles and enjoyed just doing whatever… or nothing at all. We even got the boat out there! While it didn’t get much use, I did get to give lots of people a ride. Because we staggered our times we tried to communicate with our friends but unfortunately, not the best coverage out there. IOS did have an update so that we could satellite text. which wasn’t the greatest, but still worked.
