Holt Campout


We returned last night from five days of camping in the Oregon Dunes. It was with a large group from Holt International, which is the adoption agency we worked with when we adopted Christian. I have to say that I like camping with a group (with many kids) better than going alone as a family.
The kids had unlimited playmates. We shared several community meals, so instead of preparing full meals, I just had to do one dish. The park we were at has sand dunes and lakes. It is great for hiking, biking, swimming and many other things.

Wow Michelle, looked like a great time! A group camp-out does sound like it's more fun and easier than going alone. I've been seeing your updates from camping on Facebook, they've been great!

Our trip to Oregon last month took us to those dunes for the first time. I was so surprised to find out there are many fresh water lakes so close to the ocean and surrounded by sand. It all seems salty to me! Glad you had a good time (and sunshine!).
