Bad Campsite
We met Eileen in Oregon a few weeks ago to go camping for the weekend. I picked out Emigrant Springs State Park because it was about halfway to Portland and convenient to the highway. When you can see tractor trailers (and triples) from your campsite you know that you are in for a long weekend.
Eileen was joined by her Canadian friend Joann and Joanie's former co-worker Ian drove down from Seattle. As you can see he sleeps 'Finnegan Style' but without the snoring
Friday night Joann got a fire going for smores (Joanie made homemade Marshmellows, yum!)
Saturday morning, I was in charge of the fire.
By Saturday afternoon it started raining and it kept raining until Monday.
It wasn't really my weekend, next time someone else can be in charge.

Dude - that sucks! At least you had marshmellows! Marshmellows make everything better :)
How do you make homemade marshmallows anyway?
Marshmallows were pretty easy, just messy. You basically cook sugar to a specific temperature and whip it into some gelatin with a bit of vanilla. I'll send you the recipe...
You should have taken advantage of that park's amenities, and stayed in a yurt...
Yurt! Please. The campground had CABINS and still we sat under our screen tent getting wet.
