Camping at Bowman Lake

The 2008 Camping Trip at Bowman Lake, NY

July 4th weekend with the Beames, Clisby, and Neumann clans
We had three campsites near the beach. We used one as our central meeting place and set up two screened in tents and our stoves. Our tent was set up across the road.
Isabel cought some bugs and worms.
Abby went biking with the big kids.
Fishing at the lake.

Abby caught a sunny.


Isabel caught a baby bass, a sunny and a bull nose!









Fishing is hard work, I'm hungry and tired.....
Story time with Stan and the girls.
Kid power!


Swimming at the beach.



Butterflies were everywhere!

Abby and Bridgid took a hike with the older kids while Stan and Isabel played at the beach.

We found all kinds of cool mushrooms on our hike.

There was a blue grass band playing at the pavillion.


Totally tired after a long day of fun.
Biking around the park...



Getting ready for a surprise birthday party for chris....
More beautiful butterflies...

Strawberry Picking....yummmmy!

Where did May go?

Wow where did May go??? I can't believe it's already the middle of June.
Aunt Madeline and Baby Eva came for a visit.


Stan's knee is healing nicely and he is back to work as usual.



We opened camp with Aunt Ooie on Memorial Day, a nice weekend although a bit chilly.


Abby practiced her casting....she can't wait to show Uncle Jack and Cousin Jordan how good she's gotten.
Stan, Casey, and the girl's brought Aunt Nancy's old fridge up to camp the next weekend, I stayed home to clean and dig out summer clothes.
Then the heat wave hit and we broke out the sprinklers at school.
We are looking forward to our July break and our annual camping trip with the Neumann and Clisby clans.
