Small Group Camping

So 3 out of the 5 couples in our small group went camping a few weekends ago. I don't know where we were, but it was in the Smokies. Both of the other girls had never been camping. One said she'd never do it again, the other didn't sleep well, but said it was fun. Here's some pics of the weekend.

Us riding in the back of the truck to go to the lake or river or bathrooms.

This lake was beautiful. Had mountains all around it. Justin and I swam to the rock outlet across the way and then to the back set of trees and then back to the shore with the orange balls. I've always wanted to swim a long way across a big lake. I can mark that off my list of things to do before I die. Thanks for going with me Justin!

Here's the group at a lookout close by.
Here's the 'kitchen' at our camp. The tents were kinda spread out to form a triangle around it.

The guys camped for 2 nights. They set everything up for us girls to come the following day. It was very sweet. This is the firepit area. The guy on the left had camped here as a boyscout about 20 (ish) years ago and made these "benches" with his troup. They were still there!
