May 26-29, 2017
We took our first camping trip of the year to the Concrete/Grandy KOA. The weather couldn't have been better - gorgeous and sunny. Very unusual for Memorial Day in Seattle!
In addition to our 4, the kids brought friends, Dominique and Oliveo (best idea ever, I hardly saw the kids as they were off playing the whole time), my sister's family (Julie, Keith, Parker & Cecily), and my brother, Jared.
We brought our trailer, still sporting a lovely, plywood-covered hole in the floor. Eric attempted to repair the pinhole in the canvas, but the patch refused to stick.
We put the boys outside in a tent as the camper is rather cozy. There about froze the first night, but refused to give up their spot when the girls offered to switch with them.
This was our first time staying at a KOA on a weekend and experiencing their "events". There was ice cream, cake, bingo, putt putt golf, a jumping pillow and more. You had to buy a bracelet for some of the events, which I find annoying, but the kids used them enough we got our money's worth.
We drove into Concrete on Sunday to find some caches. Pathetically, we found 2 out of 5 we looked for.
Overall, a great weekend at the nicest KOA so far. The kids came home sun-burnt, dirty and tired. Perfect!
