Camp Constantin

Jason and I got to spend one cold night with pack 1776 at Camp Constantin.

We set up the great tent that the Lipes lent us as close as Jason could arrange to the Ferenczhalmy tent.


The morning started with a hike to the lake and back.


Then Jason got to shoot a bunch of things:

 But his favorite activity was tree climbing.

 


Vacation at Primland

Paula and I got away for a few days at Primland without the kids (thanks Oma and Nana!  (and Uncle David and Aunt Rhonda!)).   After an enjoyable dinner catching up with the Kopps in Greensboro, we drove up to the resort the next day.   I played some golf.

Beautiful birdie hole


Paula was chauffeur and drove the cart over hill and dale.   There were many beautiful views from the course.

Here's a shot of the hotel itself.    They have smores available to roast on the fire on the back porch every night.  Our room was the 2nd window on the right on the top floor.   You can just see the round portion of the hotel on the right.  The bottom floor is the golf clubhouse.  The 3rd floor is the library.  The top floor is the observatory.

We spent a rainy morning in the library

Primland library has views in 270 deg directions

Then did some hiking and sightseeing.
