We are all so excited waiting for our annual trip to Chelan. Just about every day one of the girls asks how much longer until we go. We don't leave until July 19th and this year we get to stay for two weeks! I must have sat on the phone redialing for more than two hours trying to get a spot at the campground right on the lake. I was so excited to learn that not only was I able to get a spot, I was able to get one of the BEST spots right near the lake and in the shade of a huge tree. This trip has been the highlight of our year since we started going there 4 or 5 years ago. The lake is so clean and the weather is so nice.
We missed the rodeo last year but if we hurry we can make it this year. It starts the evening we get there. None of us had ever been to a rodeo before so it was really exciting the first time we went. It's called the Chelan County Rodeo
and it is a blast.
We also usually go horseback riding at Alta Lake at the Whistling Pines Ranch. Gorgeous scenery and a pretty good ride. The ranch is owned by a real cowboy, it's a real country experience.
But most of the time is spent playing in Lake Chelan
or just hanging out. My mom comes up and spends a night or two, (or three) with us. And cousin Gwennie is usually always there too. This year my friend Chris and her gang might even come up for a bit and play with us. We are looking forward to it-hi gas prices and all! I hope you have something planned this summer. Whether it's a camping trip 100 miles from home or in your backyard. Don't let the news get you down.
