Camping by lake McClure/McSwain

This August we went camping up by an area most people know by the lake "Don Pedro". We didn't camp there though. We were at the side by side lakes of McClure & McSwain. We took C.J along, as we do pretty often on camping trips.

The first day we set up camp & just chilled for a while.

The next day we went to Knight's Ferry on the  Stanislaus River. We walked among the ruins, across the longest covered bridge in California and swam in the river. Before heading back to camp we had dinner at a 50's diner. Mom said if we were brave enough to swim across the river she would let us eat there. We think she was planning to eat there anyway, hmmm...When we got back to the camp Ricky & Mom went for a trip around a cove in McClure in our row boat. CJ & I played board games.

The third and final day Mom, Dad & Ricky went down to the lake to "row" while CJ & I finished our game. Then CJ & I went down with Ricky for a while. Then we packed up & went over to Lake Mc Swain. While at McSwain Mom, Dad & Ricky "rowed" across the lake. CJ & I swam across. It took a long time to get there & back. By the time we got back to the picnic area we had to go home.
