the weather was gorgeous, Brian and the boys were excellent hosts, and the site is awesome -- you all missed out.
we shared camp with some adorable lizards - that may have been texas horned lizards living well outside their known habitat.
we compared Brian's homemade traditional bacon to my homemade shoulder bacon (this batch was MUCH better than what I had at the spring gathering)
retensioned 2 zip lines
did a woods hike including looking for artesian springs along the streambank.
ate
sharpened stuff with a Baryonyx mutt stone and arctic fox scythe stone
threw knives, hawks, and a shovel
sat around the firepit and made wood shavings
and he topped it off with chicken & taters grilled over the world's largest emberlit type stove. (with a rotating grilling rack)
site has plenty of room for tents out in the open - or in the trees.
lots of places for hammocks
a hillside on the other side of the stream with plenty of room for more secluded camps (4x4 required for access)
an enclosed cook shack, a 16x30 canopy with plenty of seating and a long food prep/serving bar
potable well water
a portajohn
in the spring, the stream provides a mile or so of canoe/kayak depth (the reason this was rescheduled is because that stream was running about 9' deep and thinking about flooding the camping area)
