Well, we got back from our first camping trip of 2011 on Thursday. We spent six days at Lake Dennison State Park, Winchendon, MA. The weather was a mixed bag of pouring rain and blistering sunshine. The nights were really, really cold. I'm not sure what the elevation is, but I'm guessing that that had something to do with that.
On two separate nights, we had to spend a couple hours in the car due to extreme thunderstorms. We played Yahtzee on my phone to pass the time.
On the sunny days, we got in a bit of hiking and swimming. We also played a lot of board games while it poured cats and dogs. My husband had to trench around our screen house due to the downpours to prevent flooding -- did I mention we were under flood warnings a couple of times while we were out? LOL!
Within an hour or so of arriving at our campsite, a huge thunderstorm was headed our way. Luckily a couple of our camp neighbors came over to help us hurry up and set up our largest tarp over the screen house. Here are a few pics.
