Red River Gorge

Went camping over Memorial Day Weekend and it was awesome! =) I love love love camping. And this is our annual trip. Last year we went to Rough River because mom went with us and also because we took Mikayla that time as well.... so this year we had our hearts set on the Gorge. 4 other people went with us, but they all left Sunday so Sean and I got a night to ourselves..... Well we thought we'd have it to ourselves anyway.. haha The coyotes had other plans though. =) We ended up eye to eye with a whole pack of coyotes the entire night. They played on our campsite in plain view of us and howled and everything, we just built up the fire and sat around watching them though.... it was kinda neat really. I was going to snap a few pictures of them but I would of had to leave the safety of my fire and venture to my tent to get the camera.... and I wasn't too into being eaten so I passed on the pictures.

Sean and I took a hike Sunday by ourselves and found these caves that we could see from a look out point.. We'd seen them from the look out 4 or 5 times before and always wondered how to get to them, and we found em... we were so excited. Need a small amount of rappel equipment to safely get into them though, so that'll be an adventure for next time. =) But we found em at least.. hehe We also got our freak on in the hammock.. lol we kept trying to wander away from the rest of our crowd to go get a little freaky in the woods but everyone kept following us.. lol so once they all left, we desecrated the hammock.. haha

Anyway.... here's a few pics. =)

Me and My Luv on the rocks by the creek.
If you look real hard you'll see the 4 foot water mochassin, he's right in the middle of the pic. =)
The friggin HUGE spider that paid us avisit..... *shudder*

If you read my blog frequently, then you'll remember a few years back when we went to the Gorge and almost died... it flooded and we camped through two tornadoes and ended up stuck having to wait on a helicopter to get us out. The yellow dot is where the water crested at that year. That's the roof to a barn that you're looking at btw.
Seans mom bought us this kick ass grill for Christmas.... this is us making breakfast on it. hehe
We tried to make eggs.... lmmfao.. they didn't work out very well.

I'm so jealous. I didn't camp for the first time until I was in college and I love it. Wish I had more time to go now...
