Last year, we spent one weekend a month camping at Crystal Mountain, which we love to do. This year, we’ve been a little busy (ha) and haven’t made it up there until this weekend. The kids love playing in the snow after the ski day is done. We also went on a “snow walk” toContinue reading “Finally, a weekend at Crystal!”

Lincoln Rock 2019
We just love getting away for the weekend in our camper! I made reservations for Lincoln Rock State Park months ago and the kids were excited to visit there for the first time. Can you see the profile of my favorite president on the cliff face? We also got to install Jim’s birthday gift fromContinue reading “Lincoln Rock 2019”
January Ski Weekend
We spent four whole days at Crystal Mountain last week! First, the kids and I went (and took my nephew Preston with us) over winter break. It was a gorgeous day, hardly anyone was on the mountain, the snow was great, and the kids were positively ripping! What a great view on the way upContinue reading “January Ski Weekend”
Weekend in Lake Chelan
We realized at the beginning of October that we were on a streak: we’d planned a camping trip every single month of 2018 – except November. So we quickly took a look around and decided to book two nights at Lake Chelan’s city park for Veteran’s Day Weekend. It was such a fun trip! WeContinue reading “Weekend in Lake Chelan”
Pacific Beach
I have always wanted to do a fall trip to the coast, and with our camper we now have the chance to do that. So we scheduled a weekend at Pacific Beach with our friends the Bonnells, and we had the best time!
Jim’s Birthday Surprise
Every year for his birthday, Jim asks for the same thing: skiing and floating. With his wife. 🙂 And anyone else who wants to come. So this year his birthday fell on a Monday (which he has off, and so can I) and we didn’t have baseball over the weekend. I booked a surprise tripContinue reading “Jim’s Birthday Surprise”
Lake Pleasant
We spent another overnight in the camper at Lake Pleasant RV Park in Bothell as JT had a tournament in Meadowdale over the weekend. What a lovely spot! On Sunday, the weather turned rainy (surprise to everyone) and we got soaked with that fine misty rain that never ends here in the PNW. Fortunately, weContinue reading “Lake Pleasant”
Ski Weekend #2
This past weekend we had another weekend at Crystal Mountain, staying in the camper and skiing. We have so much fun doing this as a family! We arrived to tons of snow and got cozy… We forgot all of our games except one, so the kids started working on making their own. They made PictionaryContinue reading “Ski Weekend #2”
Crystal Mountain Weekend
I have been skiing at Crystal Mountain for maybe 30 years or more, and I’ve seen the RVs lined up in the parking lot. We always thought it would be fun to stay the night right there on the mountain. This past weekend, it happened! Jim took Friday off so we could prepare, and weContinue reading “Crystal Mountain Weekend”
Our First Camper Trip
We scheduled a close-to-home, one night stay at a nearby state park for our first overnight in the camper. We are learning lots of things like propane management, condensation management, and storage management and it seemed like playing it safe was a good idea. We had so much fun! We even took the bikes withContinue reading “Our First Camper Trip”
