How I view ... Playtime

Every year... for 20 years we have been privileged to camp at the Simpson Campground at Mason Lake.  It has been a time of family, fun and relaxation.  Our favorite family memories come from our time spent at this campground. 

It is with the greatest of sadness that we learned that this August we spent our last week camping at Simpson  as the company has decided to sell the campground.  We enjoyed our time doing what we always have done... playing dominos and cribbage, eating S'mores, laughing and being together. 

With this post I will share pictures of time present and past since it only seems fitting.  Here is my version of PLAYTIME... for the ClickinMom's monthly challenge.

Thanks to Sam for catching these pictures on his iphone of Grandpa tubing with Hannah - what a treasure!

 

 

And this year of course fishing was one of the "top" playtime activities ... just like every year.  I believe Hannah caught the most fish this year with her homemade pole she uses every year.

And just to prove that Hannah has always fished at Mason Lake with only a stick and a piece of fishing line ... here is how she started out at just 2 years old.  Gosh this gives me a lump in the throat!

 

And from here to the end of this very very long blog post the pictures go from 2002 - 2011 (my digital progression).  Thank you for letting me share!
