Camping on the St. Joe River


Trevor brought his remote control airplane and we flew it until it would no longer fly.

This happened quicker than you think...somehow those planes find the trees and the ground so quickly.

Here is Gauge really really wanting to run after the plane that is flying through the air, but he was a good dog and stayed with me.

Darby was excited about the flying plane too.

Of course the boys found something to jump off of.

This was the little swimming area ~ which was perfect for the dogs and the kids to swim in. On the dock there is Garrett, Porter, Holly holding Mason, Trevor, Jon and Darby.

Garrett, Jon, Gauge and Darby. Garrett liked having the dogs camping. Just a few months ago he hated dogs and wouldn't go near them ~ this is a huge improvement!!

Gauge loves baby Mason and baby Mason loves Gauge. He would crawl over to the dogs if you weren't looking every time.

We went up to the town St. Maires and sat in this High School parking lot to watch a famour firework show. St. Maries was having there Lumberjack days while we were camping so we went up to see the big show.We put our chairs in the back of the truck to watch. The dogs were pretty good with the loud firework noise, Gauge slept through it but Darby shivered a little but as long as they weren't howling I was ok with it.

Lots of big fireworks. I guess you can go and sit in the football stadium and get a better show but we were happy with the comfort of our car.

The final fireworks was HUGE - honestly the biggest I have seen. It was awesome!

This is Porter looking like a red-neck!!
