Back from the wilds

Sort of at the last minute, we decided to go camping last night over at the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes park. (We were in F64)

Just about perfect weather for us. Warm comfortable evening for sitting around the campfire. Overnight temps were around 60. I didn't have socks so my feet were ever so slightly chilly. A warm morning, and temps were around 90 by this afternoon. We left the campground around noon, and went over to the lake for some swimming. (There were a lot of Koreans there. Maybe a family reunion or something. Parking lot was overflowing.)

Beautiful clear night. Crescent moon. I got up a couple times and enjoyed the stars. (We're still close enough to the core of the Cities that some of the fainter stars would be washed out.) I didn't really sleep like a log. We had an air mattress, but it wasn't the most comfortable thing. The kids were out cold. And, at least this time I didn't have vomit all over my only shirt.

Got home about an hour ago. Hanna needs a nap. We'll see if she settles down. For supper tonight I'll grill some peppercorn beef loin. Mmmm.
