    Camping with Kia *PICS*

    A couple of weekends ago, Andy, Kia, and I drove up to Tawas State Park in East Tawas, MI, where my parents had been camping for the past 2 and a half weeks.

    We spent Friday thru Sunday there.... Kia had a blast!

    If you notice how dark the sky is in the background..... a thunderstorm was blowing in..... after we took these pics we had to run back to the trailer and made it just in time.... Had heavy rain, high winds, lightning, and hail!

    And again....


    But earlier that day it was sunny and we were in downtown East Tawas for the Classic Car Show. We also made a stop by the pier.

    Lake Huron.

    It was great being there again. I hadn't camped there since I was a teen. I'll dig out some more pics and I took video.

    Me and Kia on the dune (same day as the storm)


    Dogs were not allowed on the public beach, so Andy and I would walk her down towards the lighthouse and take a path thru the dunes....

    and then thru the jungle...


    Car show at East Tawas


    Andy in a racecar


    Me and Andy by the car (Kia wouldn't turn around... )


    We went tubing down the Au Sable river (my sister has those pics from the actual trip)
    Here's my sister Linn and my Dad getting the coolers ready


    Loading up the tubes


    My dad's in the white shirt and my mom in the pink. I love how you can see the heat from the flame moving over my dad's ankles and across Duane and my mom...)

    Seems like every trip I've been on recently, we end up driving thru a storm...

    Kia in the backseat


    Mother Nature giving us a hard time on the drive home...









    At least we got the car cleaned...

    More great pics, Kimmy! I love the photos of the threatening skies! Almost looks like the sky before a tornado! I'm glad you came through the bad weather unscathed. The picture of Kia in the "back seat" is precious! And the one with your Dad's feet "on fire!!" Well, you've definitely sold me on Lake HURON!! And made me hungry for toasted marshmallows! And..."A happy time was had by all! (Glad you got to sneak Kia onto the beach!)

    Well it looks like a nice time was had by all (with the exception of the storms ).

    I really liked the dark sky pics.

    Looks like a great place to go!

    That sky looks like the same one we contended with this past week.

    Thanks for sharing your pics!

    Umm! For some reason my PC snagged
    on downloading any of the pics.
    I will have to try again tonight and see what happens.
