camping weekend

We had a good holiday weekend. Jillyn, Mike, Aidan and Paddy came up on Friday and we went camping on Saturday night at Hartman Creek in Waupaca, WI. We hiked a little (but never made it to the beach), roasted marshmallows, and spend Sunday morning kayaking around some little lakes. All in all a good time.

We were wakened in the middle of the night by VERY loud rustling, munching, slurping, and rummaging, as a raccoon was raiding our campsite for trash and goldfish crackers. If someone had been around, they would have been amused by us peering out of a slit in the tent window, shining a cell phone light in an attempt to scare away what we thought must have been a bear (given the amount of noise it was making). Crazy city folk.
