Labor Day Camping

Awhile back we decided that we were settled in enough to go camping for Labor Day.  We checked with base and they had a camper for us to rent and then after a lot of searching we found a campground in Iowa (4ish hours away) that had 1 reservable spot left so we took it!  It was at Lake Darling State Park and it was great!  The site was nice and it had just enough for us to do to stay busy but not so much that we felt overwhelmed.  So we spent our days biking, playing at the play ground, hiking, fishing and just hanging out.  One afternoon we went into the little town that was near by but we found nothing, so we headed to the little store right outside the park and it was great!  We got night crawlers and snacks and 3 chairs for our front porch!  They were selling the store and everything with it.  We weren't sure if it was true but David asked if the chairs we were sitting in were for sale and she said "Yes, how about $30 for all 3 and I'll include the cushions."  SOLD!  I mean what a deal!  So now there on our front porch waiting for some new paint and cushions but are totally functional for now.  It was a great weekend and boy do we just love camping!
