We've been planning a week long camping trip with friends for about 6 months now. It's amazing how much you still save until the last minute, even with the best intentions of planning early. I'm still psyched about the trip though. There will be 6 of us altogether; Josh and Stacie are coming from Milwaukee, Adhamh is coming from Iowa and he will be bringing his girlfriend from Indiana. We're going first to Northern Wisconsin, to a wonderful campground that Alex and I have visited before (about 2 years ago). We also decided to avoid driving through Chicago and we're taking the ferry across Lake Michigan to Wisconsin. I'm looking forward to the 4 hours it will take to ferry across the lake where we can hang out on the boat and not be in the car (plus there's beer on board, gotta love that). The longest ferry trip I've been on is 30 minutes to Kelley's Island in Lake Erie, so this will be new for me. I love being on the lakes though so I am really looking forward to it!
We'll spend about four days in Wisconsin, everybody else will head home and Alex and I are going to camp by ourselves in the Upper Peninsula, not too far from Wisconsin. Then we'll make the trek home through the UP. I think it's going to be a great time, but I will not have access to the internet for about one week. I fear the state of my email when I return. I'll have to be vigilant about posting my pictures when I get home. The last week long camping trip we did we came home with about 200 pictures from the trip and it took me about a year and a half to finally get all of them posted to Flickr.
