Camping in the Catskills

Last weekend was Memorial weekend. We had decided this would be Izzy's first camping trip. We went to the Catskills upstate New York with Pete and Nicole. We had upgraded our tent to "family size" which meant we could use the portable cot. As it turned out Izzy preferred to sleep in my sleeping bag, with me, which was a bit of a challenge. Isabella enjoyed being outdoors, but all she wanted to do was eat everything on the ground, so the portable cot came in useful as a playpen. We don't mind her eating a bit of dirt now and then but this was constant; leaves, insects, dirt anything she could pick up. Did a nice walk and had some cool campfires. Weather was beautiful. Hopefully this will be the first of many camping trips.
