Our trip started with a sleepy baby bear in the backseat…. He’s sorta adorable.
Here are his parents! It was about a 3.5 hour drive from our house. Not too bad when you have a bag of snacks and candy and the baby has a dvd player :) Ah technology… you are a life saver!
When we arrived, we set up Gertrude (our camper) and our campsite had to get gussied up too. I’m still workin on it, but for now I just have flamingos, a rug, flower pots, and lights. I feel like it leaves a lot to be desired but it’s cute in a minimalist sort of way…
And here are a few pictures of the inside. Excuse the mess. It happens when you’re living out of a tin can in the middle of a grassy field….
We met up with my husband’s side of the family(Grandma Penny, Uncle James, Auntie Nette and Uncle Matt, Auntie Trish and Uncle Mark, Nolan and Wesley) which was nice because we don’t see them as much as we’d like to. Bentley had a great time playing with his cousins Nolan and Wesley. They are a lot older than him (10 and 7) but they paid attention to him and carted him around the campground and Bentley loved it.
Instead of joining the gang for hiking, we took the opportunity to explore the neighboring town of Gaylord, MI. It’s so cute and fun.
We visited a yard sale, 2 resale shops, and a salvation army before heading to “The Bearded Dog” for lunch. It was gorgeous and the food (and the martini… whoops…. it’s vacation…) were awesome!
This was a sweet little antique shop…
That evening, we all reunited for a group dinner and smores around the campfire! I would say it was a glamping success. Hartwick Pines, we loved visiting you… glamp again soon! Bye!
Love,
Meagan
