We got out camping again on the weekend - Sunday through Tuesday, once again. We decided to try out Lake Adam this time, they have electric sites... and honestly that's about it as far as better or more than William Lake. It was nice to be able to plug in our cooler/fridge and use that for food. They did have a wonderful playground for the kids, but it was down on the beach so the kids weren't able to go there on their own whenever they wanted to. The walk to the beach involved a really steep hill - while not so bad on the way there (downhill) the uphill climb back to the campsite left you needing a shower or another swim when we got back. And, worst and most importantly of all... the beach has leeches. Lots of leeches. Seriously. Lots of them. On Sunday when we went down there were lots of people, lots of kids in the lake. And nearly every one of them came out with leeches on them. There were kids carrying around cups full of them. While standing in the lake you could watch them swimming towards your legs. Ick. Gross. Disgusting. I can't do leeches. I tried. I can't. We went down again Monday morning. It was hot and I wanted to swim. But I just couldn't. After lunch Josh decided we would take snacks and drinks and go to William Lake. A relief to get in the water and swim without fear. We came back to Lake Adam for supper, got up Tuesday morning and packed all up, and went to William Lake again for the afternoon before coming home.
We know now. It's not worth the electric. So not worth it. William Lake it is from now on!
Yesterday we had dentist appointments in the morning. All teeth are well, white, and healthy! Phew! I don't hate the dentist and had no real reason to worry, but I always do worry that this time will be the first cavity for us to deal with and I don't look forward to that day.
We have been expecting Josh's parents to arrive sometime at the end of this week - today or tomorrow. His mom called last night around 7pm... to say they would be here in a few hours! What a rush! We ran around and got a weeks' worth of chores all done, and the kids all in bed and asleep within a couple hours. And now they're here and everyone is happy!
I have pictures from camping to put on, and a few from around the house. I'll get to them sometime in the next few days. Maybe!
