Camp and Canoe

     I am really looking forward to this weekend because I am going to the Escatawpa River to camp and canoe.  I did this last year 4th of July weekend too!  We had so much fun, we decided to do it again! I have seven friends that are coming on the trip too.  I am especially excited about seeing my friend, Shea.  Her and her husband are coming down from Birmingham. 
     The trip is 15 miles.  We will probably canoe about half way on Saturday and then find a beach to camp on.  We set up our tents and get the tiki candles ready for dark.  We cook out on the beach and build a fire.  It's great to just hang out with friends and be on the beach.  The next day we wake up, clean up and get back in the canoe to start our journey.  We make stops all day to swim and eat.  It is a blast! If you have never been before you should check out their website http://www.escatawpahollow.com/
If you don't like camping, you can just take a day trip.

  1. Tiffany,
    It sounds like so much fun. My husband and I used to do those fun things before kids. After we had our girls we would take them to campgrounds and cabins. Later we upgraded to a camper and the kids really liked that. It is nothing like being outdoors though. Have fun in that South Alabama Heat and don't forget to eat some watermelon!!

  2. Unfortunately, I have never been camping. It sounds like so much fun! The closest I've ever came was the two times we went to the Smoky Mountains. We stayed in a beautiful cabin. We roasted hotdogs and marshmallows over an open fire. Also, a humungous raccoon chased us out the hot tub. This is as rough as I can stand it. But good for you though:)
