We went camping at Spruce Lake again this summer.
Our good friends have been going on the same weeks in August for 40+ years. Their parents and siblings still come. Their siblings invite friends, too. So it ends up being a large group.
It's like the 1980s; The large group of kids heads off in the morning and we often don't see them again until lunch, maybe not even then, and then they disappear again until dinner. Final curfew is 10:30pm, so they definitely come back then, ready for showers and bed.
We build and sit beside the fires, read, percolate coffee, roast our food, pitch in for community dinners, enjoy the lovely weather, play put put, swim, chat, play board games, hike, etc.
It's a lovely way to end the summer.
