We went camping at Knoll Lake a couple of weeks ago. It was nice as usual! It never rained, never got too hot, and wasn't super-cold at night. Not much to talk about, so I'll just post pictures.
Kids on a log:
Wildlife... lady bugs:
A caterpillar... Robbie let it crawl on his tummy & all over the place for about a half hour before I finally had him put it in a tree. He laughed his head off when it would crawl around his neck! He was very gentle with it.
We even brougt swimsuits and got in the lake this time! It was COLD. We couldn't stay in very long, but when we go back in few weeks, it should be better. I'm noticing how nasty and green the water looks in the pictures, but it really wasn't disgusting, I promise.
See? That's not gross.
We got a good campsite. Near the bathrooms, but not TOO near, if you get my drift. (and drift is exactly what I'm talking about - no thanks!) The kids' tent is behind the screen room, and you can see part of our tent off to the right. We love our new tent - I have to take a picture from the inside next time because that thing's huge!
OK, so that's a terrible picture, with the shadows & everything. I didn't take too many this time. We had a great time! Nobody was sick with the Plague of the Public Pool like last year, and it was just the getaway we needed.
We're planning another trip in July, so stay tuned.

What a beautiful place! That looks like a really awesome trip. Do you guys just go camping by yourselves usually?
And yes, Finley has a pink floyd shirt--I can't believe that you noticed it!
Where is that oasis? It looks beautiful!
About camping at the beach-- yeah, sand gets on and in everything. We just had to shake out our bedding every few days, have separate shower towels, and a "no shoes in the tent" rule. But it's really not as annoying as it sounds. The biggest pain is you have to reserve (and pay for) your spot in December or January. It's about $35a night.
Looks fun! Is Knoll Lake on the Rim? Looks like you have a nice set-up with the screened in partition over the picnic table -- almost made me want to go camping... almost :)
