Adventure Guides Spring Campout 2011


Leo and I had a great time at the Spring campout with our Adventure Guides group this weekend. Leo enjoyed simply hanging out with Dad and the other kids. The canoeing, swimming, zip-line, and fishing were not bad either.

This is the pendulum. This picture does not really do it justice. The kids are hoisted up on a pulley about 35 feet and then released.


This giant pillow in the water is called the "Blob". They don't let anyone over 17 on it so the little kids can sit on the far end while bigger kids jump on the near end and launch them into the lake. Unfortunately, I missed the shot of Leo flying into the lake.

This is a nice little bass we caught.



The gang of five zip-line crew.

If you zoom in, that is actually Leo hanging there. They had strict rules about where we could stand, so it was difficult to get a good shot.



Another shot of the crew. By the end of the trip, I think each of them did the zip-line at least five times.
