This is a series of posts recounting our adventures in traveling and camping.

After a few hours driving north back to Michigan, we arrived at the campground we had left the previous day. We were greeted warmly and suggested a few good spots to set up camp - they were great spots for location (near bathrooms and other campers), but the ground wasn't level.

We chose a level spot at the back of the campground.

alt

Between our large tent and parking the bus, we took up THREE RV spots. Tent camping at an RV park is tricky, but not impossible. It would have been expensive renting three spots for twelve days, especially over two weekends. What an incredible blessing!

alt

Everyone helped set up camp, even my littlest one put firewood in the pit for us.

alt

We set up our booth beside our tent and got it set up for dining and cooking. The command is "live in booths", so this was a perfect way to both live in and invite others also to enjoy our booth.

alt

We found that keeping it neat and tidy went a long way towards enjoying the spot.

alt

The next morning we enjoyed scrambled eggs and fresh ground flour bread from our gracious hosts!

alt

The children discovered the playground and enjoyed playing "restaurant".

alt

It was Friday and were were spending the day finishing up the campsite, exploring a bit and preparing for Sabbath.

alt

The children decided to make their own campfire. With some help from daddy, they got the fires started and they roasted little beef smokies over the flames. It was a nice snack before diner!

alt

We enjoyed breaking bread in our booth, the Sukkah and welcomed in the Sabbath!

alt

The festival begins at sundown from this day and commences for seven days, plus an eighth day, although we were staying longer to pack up and return home.

We were feeling pretty comfortable and adjusting quickly to our new environment. The weather was very warm for Michigan in late September, we found ourselves wearing our "down south" clothing.

We were off to a great start for this week of camping with the family!

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

alt

Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books.
