Another camping trip with Casey and Amie by the Umqua

     

So we went camping again with Casey and Amie, it was another fun adventure. It didn't start out that great, but that's okay. It's funny now. So Amie and I headed out early again before the working boys to get a camp spot and to get everything set up. Well we got about an hour out of Eugene and Casey and Amie's truck overheated. Bummer I know! So we stood on the side of the road for about 30 to 45 minutes, waiting for the engine to cool down. While we were waiting guess how many people stopped to see if we were okay....zero. That's right not one person stopped. So anyway, the truck cooled down and we were on our way again. Well as we were driving up the canyon the truck started to heat up again, so we pulled off to where we thought there might be a camp spot. Didn't find one, but while we were waiting, we were approached by a creepy guy with a crazy story about needing gas. It was really kind of scary! He was in my way of the truck and wouldn't really let me pass. So finally I just kind of walk out and around and told him to go to the next camp and maybe they could help. Amie and I were so freaked out the we just took off. The truck wasn't even really close to being cooled down, but we weren't going to wait around. Everything worked out good though we finally found a spot to set up camp by a river/creek. It was really nice. Saturday night we did almost get evacuated because of a forest fire. I tell you crazy camp trip. Luckaly we didn't get evacuated and we were able to enjoy the rest of the trip. It was fun, Booner loved the river, he was so funny, we didn't even have to throw anything for him to fetch in the water he just loved being in there swimming laps. It was a good camp trip to rap up our summer camp outs.
