Rain, yucky Rain!!!

Well, this weekend was our camping trip up to Grayling to see the Ausable Canoe Race. This is the third year we have gone up with our family and we first went 12 years ago as a couple. This year our Friends Steve and Cindy and their 3 boys came with us. Ty and Wyatt loved having some other kids to play with this time. I'm sure they'll probably come again next year with us. It was a fun weekend, except for the fact that it down poured rain most of the time. The guys set up in the rain and packed up to go home in the rain. Then when we got home...it was raining and it's still raining, so we unpacked in the rain and Jon is still trying to dry out our things in the garage, but every 1/2 hour or so it starts to rain again!!! NO MORE RAIN! We did have a little break Saturday and were able to swim a little and we went to town to see the start of the canoe race. These guys start at 9 pm and paddle all the way from Grayling to Oscoda along the ausable river through the night! Its crazy, 92 teams of paddlers run down the main street in town with their canoes and jump in the river all at the same spot and start paddling. the boys loved it. Here are a few photos of our trip!
