Inks Lake!

This weekend Shannon, Nate (my little brother) and I went to Inks Lake State Park camping for Shannon's birthday. We had such a great time. I used to go camping a lot as a kid but Nate and Shannon haven't had much camping experience. Inks Lake is right outside of Burnet and about 45 minutes from our house. We headed over there on Friday after work. We got camp set-up pretty quick. There was a lot of moaning and groaning when setting up tent but once we got it set-up we went swimming and things just improved from there. We rented a canoe on Saturday and roamed around the lake some and then went swimming some more. There was a big rock that we jumped off of and hung around. We did some exploring too and really had a good time. When it got close to dark we cooked some burgers and played cards. Sunday we got up and ate breakfast and packed up. Then we decided to swim some more before heading home. So we swam for a couple of hours before heading back. We had such a great time!
