We missed the rain at Priest.

Last night the rainbow was so bright that you could see every color in the spectrum; I had to run to the camper and get the camera. The color swatches appeared right when we were loading up our plates for dinner, but the view was so spectacular I just dropped the plate and ran. Our Saturday night dinner of chicken enchiladas, Bennett camper dinner #2, would have to keep while we snapped some photos of Mother Natures art. We returned to the picnic table and sat down to dinner. The rainbow was definitely a forwarding of the weather moving in. We had been watching the rain moving Northeast up the lake.

As we finished our meal the wind picked up and we were forced inside John and Loretta’s camper to top our meal off with some peach cobbler. Loretta had made the cobbler with fresh peaches and topped it with some low fat whipped cream. It was great! We sat in the camper and talked as the wind and rain brushed their home on wheels. It’s funny how much camper people talk about how it “used to be”, when they camped in tents and the back of pickups. Wind and rain, warm and dry, we sat until I got to sleepy to stay awake and I had to head to bed.

Saturday we had got up and sat around the fire talking until everyone got antsy and had to go for a hike. We walked up a road talking and enjoying the outdoors. Our walk took us about three miles total, and got everyone out of camp for a while.

John and Loretta joined us this weekend and we really enjoyed the travel and camper talk. Friday night we sat around the fire till about 10 PM laughing and covering every topic from politics to river trips, birthday plans to the happenings of our close friends, it was good to get caught up with the lives and future plans of these good friends.
