camping

This past weekend i took off to the Mt. Hood National Forest and went camping on Lost Lake. It was a fun time, despite the weather. It was somewhat rainy on Saturday, but that didn't stop us from having a great time and even hiking up Lost Lake Butte. It would have been nice to not have clouds and actually see the view, but i guess that means i just have to come back next time. I actually survived camping, can you believe it? our watchdog Moose...very big dog, earns his name
