Smith and Morehouse

A few weekends ago we took out the Flying Dutchmen once again to Smith and Morehouse.  We had booked our campsite a few weeks prior, so how were we to know of the crazy thunderstorm/rainstorm we would experience.  I guess we should have thought twice since it was raining when we left and only got worse the closer we got to the campground.  Luckily Andrew's Mom joined us and came prepared with ponchos and umbrellas!  Once the trailer was all set up we transferred the girls and gear inside only to realize our tinfoil dinners would have to wait until the next day.  During the night it continued to rain and then came the lightening and thunder, oh my, I thought we were going to get struck for sure!  It was so loud and so close to us and then the rain poured down even harder.  Addie and Izze slept through the entire storm, surprisingly!  Saturday was much better, it was cool, but at least it was clear except for a small thunderstorm during breakfast.  The cooler weather foiled our plans to go on the lake in our raft, we opted to walk around it instead and throw rocks in the water.  We had a good time and enjoyed the cooler weather.  Just for the record our tent trailer does not leak, phew, that is one thing we were uncertain of before this trip.
