Today we drove to Mirror Lake.
We were going to spend a week up here, but since it snowed, we decided to leave a day later.
When we arrived at camp, we were greeted with patches of snow!.
He wanted to save some for later. Into his pocket the snow went 🙂
I need to make a note for next year: They close two of the three sections of the campgrounds on 9/9. Site 69 was the only site big enough for us. So if we want to camp in the other sections- which had trees 🙂 We need to get there a week or two earlier.
Eli LOVED our campsite. Each site had a huge sand pad for tents. Eli thought it was just a huge sandbox. He enjoyed every minute out here digging a driving his trucks.
We walked around the lake.
It’s a beautiful lake. I know why the campground is always full when we have tried to make reservations in the past.
Eli wanted to take our picture. Not bad!
That evening the temperatures dropped and it was quite cold out. Eli had to warm up his patootie. 🙂
We made smores. I like mine like a Norwegian open faced sandwich 🙂 No graham cracker, just chocolate and marshmallow.
This time of the year is just beautiful in the mountains. I’m glad we took the time to get away for a few days.
