White Mountain High

We went camping in the White Mountains in New Hampshire ( the #1 freeest state in the Union according to a recent study, Mass was 47th) and it was tons of fun. It was actually our first time camping with Penny and she was a champ. We went with our friends the Leymasters and the Evans, but all the moms and kids drove up in the morning cause we didn't want to wait for the guys to get off work. We did an awesome job of setting up the tents, but when it came to starting the fire we were significantly less impressive. After about four hours of trying to start a fire we were really glad to see the guys pull up. Dave started a fire in about 10 minutes.







We did an awesome hike called "The Flume" which was a hike up through a beeautiful mossy gorge. The whole area reminded me of Yosemite with smaller, less coniferous trees.
Camping success. We will definitely be going again soon. Dave and I are climbing Mt. Shasta in a couple of days so hopefully I survive long enough to blog about it.
