Camping on the Coast - "Little" style

Gualala is located right off of Highway 1 here in California just shy of Fort Bragg. What can I say about Gualala besides it being the best camping ever. Let me start off by telling about the campsites themselves. They are all equipped with running water and ELECTRICITY. That's right electricity. Not pictured is the full size kitchen the Bodily's always bring up, which inclues:
- a full size refrigerator
- dual basin full size kitchen sink with faucet
- water heater attached to the kitchen faucet
- full range stove

I don't know if you can call this camping, but I sure liked it.Some of the fun things to do is go for a bike ride. Brody is attempting to ride Rylee's bike and he's doing GREAT.Rylee attempted to ride a big kids bike with peddles and training wheels, "A Whole New World".Ok, how many kids can I tote around on my bike...3? Rylee and Chantilly in the trailer with Brody on my back.Hanging out around the campfire.Here is the queen of the weekend, who makes it all happen for our family...Mother Dearest.We always go over Memorial weekend and it always happens to be someone's birthday. Usually it's my younger brother Tom, but he is still on his mission in Uruguay and will be home June 26th 2009. A birthday is never complete without the pinata.CANDY!!!Rylee found a new BFF for the Gualala weekend - Brookie, who was so nice and inviting to her.I would like to give a special thanks to Ikea for the pink potty that we purchased for $4.99 so we can have pit stops for Rylee. We were cracking up that she was pretending to drive while having a bowel movement. Classic.Some of the fun things the boys did was go shooting, float down the freezing river and play horseshoes. Also while we were there we got to watch Bro. Pinrod's son get baptized in the river. It was touching having the primary kids sing, "I'm Trying to be Like Jesus". And then to watch him and his Dad enter the river just as Jesus and John the Baptist had done so many years ago. The scenery just added to the awe of the baptism. What a special event to have witnessed. Also, a special thanks to Mom, we had a GREAT time and look forward to next year!
