We found a cool stream for dipping the tootsies in.
I did do a little cooking while there using the dutch oven that was another one of my favorite Goodwill finds. The first dish was just a layering of bacon with onions and potatoes. I left it on the coals close to an hour then at the end put some cheese on top. This was truly yummy! I have to find a way to recreate this at home.
This next conglomeration might be called a delicious failure. The recipe I followed called it Black Forest cake or something like that. It's just a can of cherry pie filling on bottom, a box of chocolate cake mix and a hershey bar....all left over the coals about 45 minutes.
I had my suspicions this might not turn out as I hoped. Really if you can get past the appearance, it really was kind of good. I could have used some more liquid from somewhere.
If you have a weak stomach might not want to look at the end result.
Oh yeah, one more thing got cooked.
You may be a redneck if.....you're too dumb to properly apply sunscreen.

Looks like a total BLAST! Sorry about the sunburn :-)
And I think the long space at the end is because when you are in EDIT you need to delete all the blank lines at the end of your post. That should bring the bottom pictures (the 3 squares) up to the end of your copy. Good luck!
flora = flowers
fauna = Bambi
You are welcome.
Flora, fauna..where was Merrywaether???(get it, from Sleeping Beauty)! What a fun camping trip. I am not much of a camper..but if I was in a yurt that would be sooo much better!
Does the lizard count as fauna?
oh my! And that is why I don't go camping!
Nice sunburn!
Camping food has to be the best - all that matters is it tastes so good after a long day.
I haven't ever tried to make a campfire cake. It would be fun to try it! :0)
Umm I think this is SUPPOSE to be fun. I think I will have to pass for a stay at the four seasons. They cook and bring the food to you. But congrats on the adventure!! Hahaha popping in from SITS to leave ya' some bloggy lovin!
Yes! Fauna is animals...flora is plants. :)
The bacon, onions, and potatoes? YUM!
Only you could have a gourmet dinner camping experience!!!
Not to mention how cool was the yurt!!

Your camping trip looked fun. I'm not much of a camper, but I was intrigued by the dutch oven - makes me want to try a big campfire in the backyard.
LOL loved the way you wrote your post.....loved the pics as for the cake disaster...well sometimes they do happen. passed from sits
What a fun trip, I think all of the food looks delicious!
wow, i am impressed with the "baking" while camping! that sunburn looks painful -- wear your sunscreen, this is coming from a nurse!
Ouch! Sunburn!
Love the orange flowers!
