Camping after a cold snap

A storm blew through yesterday. Temps are noticeably cooler today, we barely got to 60 degrees. Of course, we're camping this weekend. And this means a change in how we pack for the weekend. Sigh.

Gone are the swimming in the lake days. Gone are the tank top days. Shorts are only packed in hopes that the weather people are wrong.

Fall is here.

There have been enough camping trips where I regret not packing enough layers for the cold mornings and cool nights by the camp fire. The winter coats are packed.

The morning dew can make for some wet toesies. The rain boots are packed.

The makings for hot apple cider and hot chocolate are packed. Might as well make sure that our insides are warm, too.

My camping list sure changes this time of year.  The bright side is that we ARE still camping, and I'll take all the camping I can get.
