Backbone State Park

We spent the weekend at Backbone State Park, hiking, exploring caves, and swimming. We forgot the pump for the air mattresses – d'oh! – so we had to make a quick trip to Strawberry Point to grab a DC pump that can run off of the car's power. Luckily, it worked better than our old one. The weather was perfect; warm during the day, but almost cold at night. Rose caught lots of fireflies in a bottle, although apparently their lights don't blink as much in captivity.


Lookout, Emily!




The girls were excited to have their own tent.



Got a couple phone pics of rays of sun shining through the campfire smoke.

Some fierce weather was on its way, so we took off before it caught up to us. Posting the pictures soon...
