So, Adam and I went for a short camping trip this past weekend. It was our first one of the year. I wish we weren't both so busy, but that's life. We went to Lake Wenatchee, and drove 11 miles up the forest road to White River Falls camping spot. Adam wanted to stay there because it was so far away. I was very upset we were so far away from the fishing. I changed my mind once I saw the horse trailer in the next spot over.
We spent Friday driving around, and I talked Adam into going fishing at 2 o'clock (I know dad, nothing bites at 2.) We got some hot dogs (because there was no fish) and headed back to our campsite. By then our neighbors had arrived and had their horses high tied for the night. Adam and I started dinner while I drooled over the horses.
The guy came over and offered us his ax. I got to talking to him about his horses, who were his girlfriends, and their trip that day. The lady came over and told me I could take her horse for a ride if I wanted to. Of Course! Red, was the most responsive horse EVER. He was trained to be a roping horse, and he spun on a dime. While I was off having fun, Adam got to listen to our neighbors yelling at each other. We listened to them late into the evening.
We woke up early in the morning and Adam made breakfast. We walked down to see the Falls, that were beautiful! We got back to the car and started to drive out. About a mile away from the campsite we noticed something down the road. There was our neighbor, without his girlfriend, hitch hiking. We picked him up and drove him to the highway. It would have been a LONG walk for him. It is 11 miles to the ranger station, and then another 6 or 7 to the highway.
After that excitement, we went fishing. I caught two HUGE perch. At least three inches (lol.) We watched the other fishing jump all over, taunting me. We left there, and went to the Lake to swim.
Overall, it was an interesting trip. We probably won't be camping much in Copenhagen. We're going to be going again this weekend.
