camping at knoll lake

A couple of weeks ago, we decided to get away from the heat and headed for the mountains. We went camping at Knoll lake. It was wonderful! The temps were in the 70's and the lake was great. The water was a little cold for me, but of course the kids had a great time swimming in it.



The campground we stayed at was really nice. All the camp sites had a graded spot for tents with little pathways that connected the parking space, picnic area and camping area. Unfortunately, we are in the middle of a dry summer, so we were not allowed to have a fire even in the fire pit.




Garrett and Richard tried a little fishing, but neither of them got a bite :( I am sure it had nothing to do with the kids splashing around in the water!









After they were done swimming, Grace and Jack bundled up and curled up on the hot rocks to warm up.

shelby the tortoise








Yesterday we went over to Susan and Richard's house to visit their tortoise. He just lives in their back yard and walks around eating grass. He is quite domesticated, he will eat lettuce from your hand and will come when he is called. The kids had a fun time feeding hima snack of lettuce leaves.
