We Are Alive! October 12th, 2023 We Arrived!

This is a series of posts recounting our adventures in traveling and camping.

After a few hours driving north back to Michigan, we arrived at the campground we had left the previous day. We were greeted warmly and suggested a few good spots to set up camp - they were great spots for location (near bathrooms and other campers), but the ground wasn't level.

We chose a level spot at the back of the campground.

Between our large tent and parking the bus, we took up THREE RV spots. Tent camping at an RV park is tricky, but not impossible. It would have been expensive renting three spots for twelve days, especially over two weekends. What an incredible blessing!

Everyone helped set up camp, even my littlest one put firewood in the pit for us.

We set up our booth beside our tent and got it set up for dining and cooking. The command is "live in booths", so this was a perfect way to both live in and invite others also to enjoy our booth.

We found that keeping it neat and tidy went a long way towards enjoying the spot.

The next morning we enjoyed scrambled eggs and fresh ground flour bread from our gracious hosts!

The children discovered the playground and enjoyed playing "restaurant".

It was Friday and were were spending the day finishing up the campsite, exploring a bit and preparing for Sabbath.

The children decided to make their own campfire. With some help from daddy, they got the fires started and they roasted little beef smokies over the flames. It was a nice snack before diner!

We enjoyed breaking bread in our booth, the Sukkah and welcomed in the Sabbath!

The festival begins at sundown from this day and commences for seven days, plus an eighth day, although we were staying longer to pack up and return home.

We were feeling pretty comfortable and adjusting quickly to our new environment. The weather was very warm for Michigan in late September, we found ourselves wearing our "down south" clothing.

We were off to a great start for this week of camping with the family!

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books. I am an affiliate for Libertas Publishing, your purchase will help our family grow financially.

Bank Bailout Special!

It's happening, folks. The banks are going under! To educate our children about what is going on, there is a "Bank Bailout Book Bonanza" going on with the Tuttle Twins! Use coupon code FORTY for 40% off your purchase! Check out the books here.

"Politicians like problems because they can claim to have solutions... but their solutions often create even more problems."

Taking up 3 campsites here at the cheapest campground would cost you 60 dollars a night. We could never camp at one of them when they were cheaper many years ago, this is why we camped on the islands, they are free, but I am sure one day they will figure out how to charge for camping on them.

The generosity of our family friend is beyond measure, I found out later it's $35/unit per night. That would have been difficult us to afford! The campground isn't officially open yet, so just spending time there is a privilege and an honor.

It was great fun, especially as the weather was warm and comfortable the first couple days of camping.
