Acadia Camping Trip

With the 70-degree weather, we couldn't resist dragging out the camper and heading out for the weekend. We drove to Acadia National Park on Saturday morning and found a nice site at Blackwoods campground. We wouldn't really consider camping in Acadia during the summer so it was nice to take advantage of the early summer-like days and spend some time in the park.


After getting camp set up and having lunch, we hiked Day Mountain. We spent a long time hanging around at the summit, laying on the rocks, having water and snacks and enjoying the bright sunshine.



Avery enjoyed riding his bike on a closed portion of the campground road and Paige spent a lot of time walking around the campsite exploring.









On Sunday, we drove to Bass Harbor Head Light and in the afternoon, Jason and Avery did some "scaling" on the cliffs along the ocean near the campground.

We posted some more pictures of our trip here. It was definitely nice to get out and do some camping so early in the year, and we're already looking forward to our next trip.

What a great camping trip! That is so nice you were able to get out so early. We are almost ready to pull the camper out here now that the weather is a little nicer. Paige is cruising now! -Erin

I love the photos :) Avery and Paige are SO LUCKY to have such great parents who take them out camping. That was one of the things I loved about my youth that I wasn't able to give to you kids. I'm happy that you love it so much.

Okay, it's the movie of Paige walking toward the camera... as she gets closer (and toward the end of the clip) she sort of looks up and THAT'S when I really noticed the resemblence to Avery...
