This year's GLAMPING trip was a huge success!
We made our way back to McCormick's Creek State Park for this year's glamp out!
We selected a much better site than last time and it was perfect for us!
This year we were a bit crunched for time, but you would never know it by all the details we were able to accomplish!
Emily picked up Ashley in Beech Grove around 2:30 PM on Friday and headed to the park.
Upon arrival, we plotted our our site and got to work putting up our tent.
One we had set up Glamp, we were ready to enjoy some dinner and wine!
Emily made smoked pork sandwiches, complete with a pretzel bun, havarti cheese and homemade pumpkin spread!
Ashley added a fresh caprese salad and some Parmesan crackers!
It was fall perfection with our themed wine!
This year's glamp set-up featured pennant banners, comfy pillows and blankets, as well as specialty lighting!
With the fire in full roar, we decorated with fresh sunflowers, lanterns and of course, PUMPKINS!
After a night of Pumpkin FudgeStripe cookie smores and plenty of twin talk, we slept the night away!
The moon was almost full and our air mattress could be described similarly!
We started the next morning with coffee, pumpkin bread and bananas after some fall themed music!
After freshening up and having our coffee, we decided to hike our favorite trail!
We talked endlessly about the magic of the forest and found beauty everywhere we looked.
Our 2 mile trail took us past Wolf Cave and the Twin Bridges!
We meandered along, taking our time and enjoying every step.
As we made our way through the enchanted forest, Ashley stopped to gaze in the autumn reflections.
And Emily found a mossy perch inside an ancient tree.
We worked up an appetite hiking, so we headed back to glamp for a late lunch and charcuterie!
First, we had a fall pasta salad served in mason jars.
Emily had made it using butternut squash, a mushroom medley, spinach, shredded mozzarella, and garlic Parmesan dressing!
After the pasta salad calmed our stomachs, we assembled a magnificent charcuterie display provided by Ashley!
The varied nuts, cheeses, meats and crackers were the perfect nibblers to sustain us through the evening.
We spent the night reading from Practical Magic and admiring the FULL HARVEST MOON!
In the calm quiet of the night, we may have lit some candles and gazed at stars and the full moon.
Of course the spells of fall swirled around our Witches Brew scented glampsite as we spent the night in wonderment.
Great Glamp Trip!
