1st Annual Glamping Adventure 2013!

Our first glamping adventure was quite an experience!

We chose the White River Campground in Cicero, Indiana.

Ashley met up with Emily at Aaron Ruben Nelson, they loaded up the Kia and headed the 40  minutes to the site. 

Upon check-in the staff was a bit concerned we were camping alone, but we bought some firewood and headed to our site.

We had asked for the most secluded primitive campsite, which turned out to be inside a circle drive!

Although B-2 looks rather out of the way on this map, everything was pretty tightly spaced.

There were not as many walking trails or activities to do as promoted and it was mostly an RV park.

We decided it was not the most glamorous, private spot, but it worked!

It was nice to have a tree, picnic table and firepit already established.

Also, having the car nearby turned out to be really great for loading/unloading/refilling the air mattress.

After setting up camp with flowers, wine and our trusty tent and air mattress, we built a beautiful fire!

We really enjoyed sitting around the fire in the October air and talking about anything and everything!

We saw some beautiful wisps, but did not follow as they led into a creek!

Maybe our fate will appear again on our next glamping trip!

After the first night, the weather turned on us!

Rain came down on our tent day and night!  We awoke to half our tent full of water!

Determined to stay on our glamping weekend, we made the best of the soggy situation!

We ate our gourmet meals, laid on our air mattress, and planned Michelle's baby shower!

After spending almost all day Saturday cooped up in the tent, and all Saturday night awake listening to a thunderstorm, we were ready for home!

As soon as dawn broke, we packed up everything in the rain and drove back home.

Although it was pretty much a wash, we had a great time spending uninterrupted days together!

The food was fantastic, the company was even better and we remembered a part of ourselves from younger days!

Great twin weekend! (but we will make some changes for next year!)
