Our first camping trip of the summer was to Mt. Diablo (near Walnut Creek, CA). We went with some friends and all conditions were perfect and we had a lot of fun. As you can see from the picture it felt like we were camping up in an airplane. This picture was taken just steps from our camp site. At night you could see millions of city lights from this picture. This was also a memorable trip because Andrew caught his first lizard going solo. This poor lizard must have been totally scared because it let the kids hold him on their hike for quite awhile. Everybody had a turn, even Adam. Preston always likes to tell the story about how the lizard pooped on his shoulder. Such fun memories for boys. For our second camping trip we went to Calaveras Big Trees (you can see giant sequoias there). We got to go with Aunt Renay and cousins Kaelie and Alyssa. This is my favorite place to camp and we have gone every summer since we moved to Galt. The kids got to swim in a creek and walk through BIG trees. However, I think they had the most fun collecting giant ants in their buckets back at camp. Oh the little things in life that can make kids happy!
