camping

Hols and I camped with our small group at the Coralville reservoir last night. some broke out the camo...

but everyone broke out the foil meals...

...including corn on (soon to be 'off') the cobb...

...and steamed salmon and zucchini and squash. Hols did an amazing work with this food.

Bryan and Betsy with their meals...

then it started raining...Thaddeus checking the radar courtesy of his iPhone...and it didn't look good...

s'more-making...improvised.

but we kept the fire roaring, otherwise the cool rainy night would've stuck us in our tents all night.

after an all-night rain, I went for an early-morning hike and discovered year-old evidence of the Flood of '08.

this pathway staircase was washed out after water overran the reservoir spillway.

the fossil gorge immediately proceeds the spillway...


camp breakfast ROCKS...bacon, eggs, pancakes, fresh coffee, OJ, grapes...
