We just returned from our first camping outing of 2009. We went up to the Elevenmile Canyon. This campground was very remote. We had to make our way down this 9 mile dirt road that was like driving on a washboard for 35 minutes. When we arrived, we said the next time we drive on that road will be when we leave.
Once we made it to Spillway...we never had a desire to leave. Our campsite was huge & private & loaded with boulders for climbing. In fact the entire canyon was rock & boulders. You'll see what I mean as we post pictures & stories the rest of this week.
Camping this weekend reminded me of exactly why I like it so much. As I told Tanya on Saturday, I feel like I enter a technology & culture detox unit. No cell phone service, internet, email, newspapers, tv, Wii, breaking news stories...and I don't miss any of it! The whole experience leaves me longing for the next time I can detox!
Did the road seem shorter going out? It usually does.
ReplyDeleteTanya, your dad would have been proud of this picture, it would certainly be on the bulletin board.
