Mt. Pinos Camping

 We went camping with Colleen, Rigo and Liana over our long Memorial Day weekend, up Mount Pinos to a new-to-us campground. 

It was full of huge pine trees, loads of pine cones, beautiful views, and very quiet.

At 8,250 feet elevation, the campground got a little chilly at night.

There was a 1930s ski lodge near the property, and this cute little cabin was next door. Both have been abandoned for years, though in the cabin, there was evidence of squatters from about 10 yeas ago, judging by the newspapers inside.




We ate well, we relaxed, played games, and read. The sites were huge, and very quiet.



We enjoyed Colleen and Rigo's 1967 tent trailer again, perhaps for the last time, as they're looking to sell it. I'd love to buy it but we can't store it. It's really a joy to use and sleep in.

We were playing Triominoes, similar to dominoes. 

We had a lot of laughter playing Mad Libs around the fire.

It was a great trip!
