First Camping Trip - July 4th Holiday, 2010

Dear Elijah,
We have recently returned from our 4th of July Holiday vacation in the mountains.  Nonna and Papa took you and Mommy on your first camping trip. We chose Mammoth Mtn as the perfect place to go for your first trip, because this is Papa's favorite place.  Nonna drove Mommy and you in her Jeep so we had a vehicle that we could take off-roading.  Nonna let Mommy play all her songs on her IPOD the whole way up.   Papa drove up in his big truck pulling our apartment on wheels (Travel Trailer).

We spent a week in Mammoth, CA @ Tom's Place campground.  This campground was located in the mountains between Bishop and Mammoth.   We had never stayed there before, but we ended up loving it.  It had a great creek at the end of the road that we could hear all night.  It was very relaxing.

Here are a few pictures from our vacation:

Bryna Bars came by to visit us @ our campsite. (Her daddy works 
for my Nonna).   She really liked to play with your toys. 
   Here is a picture of how closely you were watching her and making sure she
didn't take your truck too far away.
