West Branch Pond 2008

We had a great trip to West Branch pond this year. We hadn't been since I was pregnant with Ben in 2005. To get to West Branch Pond Camps you have to drive past Greenville and take a right and drive 10 miles on a dirt road. In the pictures below we are at the start of the 10 mile dirt road. Reid and Ben have their PJ's on as we left at 6:15am from our house and we just picked them up out of bed and put them in the car.
I should mention that Tristan didn't come with us this trip, first one he's missed, as he had baseball he didn't want to miss. Reid and Ben couldn't wait to get in the boat and go for a ride with Daddy. The kids were so happy to have Daddy's attention for almost 3 days. There is no cell phones and internet at West Branch Pond!

Can you see the rabbits in the picture below? For those who know West Branch Pond Camps, we stayed in cabin #2 and we saw rabbits outside of cabin #1 every day.

This is just a classic Ben moment. He spilled milk all over himself and he's got his car in front of his face too.
Here is Reid holding a fish, I was surprised it didn't seem to bother her at all to hold it. She was nervous the day before when the fish was flopping around in the boat but she asked to hold it and have her picture taken. We didn't have great fishing but we were able to eat 4-5 fish on this trip.We got a great group photo this year! I got a little tripod as a gift for our camera and this is the first time we've been able to use it and it worked great!
