September 13 - 15, 2002
This trip to the Shenandoah River Valley was a nice long weekend get-away. The Brock, Cannet, Laliberte, and Rutledge families were all present. Randy and Tammy were also present. Special guests Jennavive and Julie (guests of Ashley and Samantha) were both welcomed additions. This was a planned long weekend trip to enjoy the Shenandoah region.
Well, the Mid-Atlantic drought of 2002 has sure taken its toll. We were not able to tube down the Shenandoah River as planned because the water level was too low (we would have scraped our butts most of the way). So, we packed a pic-nic and headed down to the Shenandoah National Park. There were pavilions for lunch, and easy access to the river. The kids dawned their water shoes and proceeded to "Play" in the river for a couple of hours. They had lots of fun. We had a nice lunch afterwards, then returned to the campground for some pool and hot tub time.
We had rain on Sunday, which dampened things a bit. However, we all agree that a bad day of camping is still much better than a good day of work!
