Well, it's hard to believe, but we've just finished up with yet another Rivertarian Fall Camping Trip. This year's crowd was just a tad smaller than some of our previous trips: Jay, Ted, Tim, Pat and myself were able to make it. Pat's son Matthew took leave and was able to join us for half the trip (Wednesday and Thursday nights).
The weather this year was all over the place: from overcast and mild to clear and cold. We even had a full day of serious rain (1" - 2" forecast). The low was on Friday night where it dipped to about 26.
The camping trip was held at the traditional, and favorite location: Sherwood Lake in Greenbrier County, WV. Except for Pat's rocket run to drop Matthew off in White Sulphur, we never left the campground.
Activities around the camp was varied, with lots of walking, some boomerang throwing, pumpkin carving, and the usual fire tending and cooking.
As usual, I (and others) took a lot of photos. I've tried posting them in chronological order, and I've edited the list down so as not to bore with the same picture over and over. There are also a couple of short videos at the end of this post.
These get togethers become more and more important as the years go by, and I hope for many more to come.
Long live the Rivertarians!
