Sequoias

We went on a much needed camping trip last weekend.

We intended to go to Frazier Mills Campground, but when we were almost there, we found out it was closed! And there was only one other area to camp nearby: Camp Nelson. We were disappointed, and didn't have high expectations for Camp Nelson - we were just hoping to make the best of the situation.

But it turned out that Camp Nelson is BEAUTIFUL. We stayed at Belknap Campground and I would go back in a heartbeat. There were redwoods, a river, soft ground, the smell of pine, not a lot of people, fishing, hiking ... it was lacking nothing.

Jackson had a great time. He is an amazing little camper. Good thing because mama and papa are hoping to go camping a lot more this summer.
