Down in the Shuswap!


The must-have Shuswap family photo!
Our campsite, home for 9 nights, was the place to be, especially if you are a squirrel!   We nicknamed it "Gypsy Camp" because of all the stuff everywhere!  Jim chauffered the millions of floaties down to the beach everytime we went.  
"If you smell gas", you may want to check if Jim is in the trailer...  Site 182, you were a good place to be!
A trip to the park!  Only a smiley picture of Maren on the teetertotter this time!
We had many sunny, warm days at the beach!  Maren hardly left the water, Ethan snorkeled and swam, and Mitchell finally figured out how to use a floatie on the last day!
More beach...  I think all that bird watching tired Chris right out!
Our first ever visit to the Log Barn and it was fun!  Those goats are hilarious and those lollipops are annoyingly sticky (never getting those again).  But the sausages and butter tarts were delicious!
Couldn't pass up the go karting in Salmon Arm!  Go Team Green!
An evening stop at the beach to skip rocks!  Don't you think the headband is a great improvement over the helmet?!
Pop night??
With such a wet summer, campfires were allowed this year, so there was lots of pie and smores cooking going on!
The glowstick light show, we have to entertain ourselves with these somehow every time!
It was cloudy and drizzly after 9 days of sun (except the 2 thunderstorms), so it wasn't too hard to leave this time!  Goodbye Shuswap, see you next time!
