memorial day camping

This was a great memorial day in large part because DEREK'S HOME!!!!!!

Also, we went camping in Western Maryland at Rocky Gap State Park in Western Maryland. See the pictures below... I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day!

The beach at the lake.

Building a campfire
On one of two hikes. I really needed to get away from the city and get rid of some energy and these hikes did the trick. After one, I fell into a deep sleep I was so physically tired. I love that feeling.

Smores! There was a big flame... I promise!

Lunch! (Don't worry, this was for both of us).

At the lake. We did great people watching here.

Preparing dinner. Notice how beautiful the background is. The entire park looks like that. I hadn't see so much green in a long time (not counting the dying house plant I have in my apartment, of course).

I need to fill myself up on nature soon too. I don't think Cyrus is ready to go camping, so we might just have to take some hikes through Athens' greenways. I miss how happy and tired being outside and active can make me too. Glad you had fun.
