Camping at Indian Henry



I love camping with my family. We had such a nice time together. The weather was PERFECT and I can't say enough good things about this camp ground, called Indian Henry, that we love to stay at. It's on the Upper Clackamas River in the Mt. Hood National Forest.

S'mores are a MAJOR tradition when camping, in our family. Avory created the BIG s'more. She ate it all too. I think Brig and Kelton ate 4 or 5 that night. That's the good thing about camping. You're always so hungry, everything tastes really good, and you go burn it off right after eating!

Brynn, Brig and Dave posing for pictures while hiking.


The kids found this fort already made down by the river.



Dave's eyes are dreamy.....as you can tell by the expression on my face....haha! (Love my camping face! :b)



Brig and Avory are my daring kids. They jumped off this rock into freezing water a few times. Notice in the background that the older boys behind them never jump! hahah! Kelton chose not to jump this day, but wants me to let everyone know that he did the next day.....LOL!

"Go Avory!"

Payton loved finding pretty rocks in the water. All of them were to special to leave there too. (Oye!)

A picture of my "Gang."


Me doing some cooking around the camp fire.


Dave is pretending to watch the coals in the barbaque next to him. He had a good book with him on this trip, the last of a triology. He never put the stupid thing down. Me and the kids harassed him the whole time about never doing anything with us, because he was reading. He gave me the "evil eye" as I took the picture. LOL! Isn't he scary?


Next time we go, we hope some of our friends or family can come with us! (Hunting pictures to follow this blog next week! )

PS- Happy 30th birthday Diane....you're getting so old!

It does my heart good to see that David actually still reads, he gave it up from about age 10 to 30. Next time we get to go to Indian Lake with you, it looks so pretty.
