Fall Camping Trip - October 1-4, 2014

Left to right: Tom, Ted, Tim, Pat, Jay, David, Kevin, Mark, Scott, and Damon.

The annual fall camping trip was a little earlier this year - the 1st weekend of October instead of the last weekend.  We ended up with a pretty large group, and a few visitors to boot.  Those that camped were Damon, Jay, and Tim Harper, Ted Hemmelgarn, Scott Allison, Pat Conway, David and Mark Morgan, and Tom Givens.  Kevin Stafford came down a couple of days.  A couple of old high school buddies, Jim Givens and Randy Meador came down one evening.  And of course we had a short visit from Freddy Hudson.

We camped this year at the Glade Creek campground, along the New River.  On two sites we had four campers, one tent, and a trailer loaded with fire wood.

The weather was pretty good for the majority of the trip, despite rain on and off for most of Friday, and a dip in the temperature Saturday night (upper 30's).

I didn't take as many pictures as usual for the trip, but I'm posting all the good ones here.

As usual, the trip was a great success; good food, good company, and an overall great time.

Can't wait till next year!
