Re post of the inside.

This is a re-post because someone stated they were unable to open the post that contains the inside of the Airstream.  
This is the lounge/ kitchen area.

Weekend get-away.

Went camping on Thursday- Sunday.  Just a quick get away, but a good one.  This was our first time at this state park. It was beautiful. The park has a lot of biking and hiking paths.  We walked the trails one day and rode the trails another day.
Our site was very private, just the way I like it.  It had plenty of mature trees, and enough land to call your own.
The beach was just a short walk from our site. We did not swim but it was relaxing just being on the lake.
I was surprised to see cabins at this park. It has one rustic and a deluxe cabin.
The fellow campers were kind, polite and respectful.
We will come back here again. Another great Michigan State Park.

On Saturday we went on a tour of the State Capitol Building. The guided tour was nice.  Our guide
was knowledgeable. We had a small group of 10 people that was in our tour.
I was surprised to find out that the marble and walnut were painted to mimic real marble and walnut. More than nine acres of walls ceilings, woodwork and columns were painted by hand using brilliant colors and elaborate patterns.
I would recommend this tour a must see.

Reflection

Just returned from a weekend camping trip with the in- laws. There was eleven of us. Some of the family members rented cabins and we of course took our camper.  We stayed at Duke Creek Campground. The camp sites are smaller than what I am used to but it had everything we needed. The campground had beautiful mature trees for shade, a small stream, a hiking trail and a pool. Everyone at the campground was friendly. The staff was the best. We chose to stay there because that campground has 6 cabins. The family will not stay in tents. 😄 Glamping all the way for them.
Their cabins had everything they needed microwave,shower,bathroom, and refrigerator.

While camping we met a very nice lady that was here to help her father spend his last days camping with his loved ones. That is how I want to spend my last days. Enjoying nature and being with family.

The trip was to short but needed.
When I am camping the world seems to stop for me. I leave everything and every worry at the door. My sole is at peace. I find that I sleep better when I am camping. I totally unplug.  No phone, no internet unless I need directions.
Well I can not wait until the day comes when we can camp full time. Until then we will continue to camp every chance we get.
