Camping with the Boys June 2008

Although my wife was unable to go this year, our Family Vacation was a Camping Trip to the Stanislaus National Forest. We camped in the Meadow View Campground near Pinecrest Lake, from Friday morning June 12 thru Wednesday June 18th.

We spent our time hiking, fishing, and swimming during the day; and talking around the Campfire at night- we even did some guided Lectio Divina meditations on different Biblical passages, including the Lord's Transfiguration and His muliplication of the loaves of bread and fish.

Fishing- Kennedy Meadows and various branches of the Stanislaus River.
Hiking/Walking trips- The Columns of the Giants, around Pinecrest Lake, and the Miwok Trail, and Calaveres Big Trees, etc.
Moaning Caverns- we also went on a guided tour of the Moaning Caverns
Swimming- we swam in the Stanislaus River near Kennedy Meadows- it was ice cold!- and in Pinecrest Lakes.

Please see the photos links for photos of the trip.
