Canada Day Weekend

Lordy, we had a good time this weekend. This was my first real camping in the bush experience...I have to say that peeing outdoors, behind a tree, is kind of a hoot, once you get the hang of it!!! We(great friends and neighbours) headed out of town, through some clear cuts and found ourselves a beautifully private little spot on the river...we had two swimming holes(with a rope swing) and a sandy beach. Swank. We couldn't figure out how come we had the place to ourselves, but we'll gladly thank the powers that be. We drank some beer. We ate too much. We swam. We laughed...lots. Felt damn fine. Thanks everyone. I really appreciated the good company.
Our private beach.
Our rope swing.
Good times were had by all.
However, we did discover this giant wreck in the woods behind us. Some fisher guy came through in the evening casting for fish. He told us some family had been living here for a few months while tending their outdoor grow op. I am flabbergasted to think they could hike all this shit in and then have the f'ing audacity to leave this mess behind. Get a clue, people. This is a beautiful world, why do you have to leave so much ugly in it?!?
Will try to get some neighbourhood haps in the next day or two....until then, g'nite.
