Camp Nights 1-3
My personal challenge of 30 nights under the stars in 2010 has gotten off to a slow start. Between saving up for the my April New Mexico trip, and buying needed gear, I've not had much money. Not to mention the weather has not cooperated. Just the same, I got one night in January, and so far, two in February. There is not too much to tell about them, as that they were all just quick car camps, and I even managed to leave the memory card to the camera at home for the last one. In January I revisited Lake Trammel for the first time in years. Lake Trammel is a small lake south of Sweetwater. Only small boats are allowed on it, which makes for a more peaceful place to be. Or at least it used to. I spent a lot of time at Lake Trammel as a child. We'd go odd weekends, or for a week at a time in the summer. Starting around eight years old, my father would throw the canoe in the water when we got to the lake, toss me a life jacket and say "Don't be back until dark."
