Looks like a good place. Gonna have to put it on the list. One question. With all your gear and two up. Where did you carry that fire wood. Surely you didn't make her hold it the whole way? Just kidding. Looks like a good trip. Was there food/grocery store nearby or did you pack it with you?

Lol...yes sir. We set up camp and ran back 10 minutes to the gas station and picked up fire wood. Actually just got a smaller tent to keep down on overpacking.

Cool tent. I have not seen one like that. I have a couple domed tents. But I prefer hotels when on the bike. We did the tent thing for a while. Then the kids came and we went to a 30ft camper. Now the kids are gone. We like the comforts. I don't think I could convince my wife to tent camp without the air matress. I guess I may have to see how I could pack it. But not having her Keurig coffee maker would probably be a deal killer.
