Jennifer had never been camping, and this year she said she was ready for it. We got her some nice outfits to go along with task, and happily drove up to Woodland Valley Campground to stay two nights. Here are some selected shots.
Before we go on, a shameless plug here for our favourite outfitters,
Mountain Tops in Beacon, NY. The young couple that owns and runs the store is always friendly. Their staff is always enthusiastic, and they have a great selection of good merchandise. I got our bed rolls, compass, MSR fuel, and many other little items there, and that is where Jenn purchased all clothes you see her wearing (including our Vibram shoes). If you are ever in Beacon, be sure to check out their store.
