Camping at Gerle Creek in El Dorado National Forest
What a wonderful time we had together and with the Wilsons the last days camping. I was once again amazed at the vastness of God's creation. I enjoyed the wild flowers, a stream where we could wade in little waterfalls and search for interesting rocks, all the wild critters, a lake where we swam to an island, and a thunderstorm. Lily thought, "Someone knocking" (thunder) and "Somebody taking my picture" (lightning). Trey liked digging in the dirt, ashes, rocks, sand, and getting so dirty I can't get the stains out of his clothing. Hanna and Maggie enjoyed helping train Blossom, the Wilsons Portugese Water Dog, wading/swimming/jumping in the water, cranking old fashioned ice cream, and attempting to make biscuits on a stick. We are so thankful to God for the provision of this time.
Notice: Trey is in the ash pit! His sisters are lounging, while Carl unpacks and sets us up.


Hanna and Maggie had a terrific time climbing on rocks. One boulder became a favorite spot to sit together and sip hot chocolate in the morning.
