My First Fix-it Friday

This is my first time trying out fix it Friday on I heart faces! Click on the logo above to find out more! The idea of FIF is to take the origonal picture and "fix it" to make it look different.

Here is my take on this week's picture!
I think it looks like an old picture that is almost fairy-like! Comments are welcome!
Thanks for looking!

Skeeters and Smores

I will update from the happenings of late soon I promise! For now, enjoy this week's installment from the mind of Mama Kat! I chose prompt #4 ~ List 5 things you like to do while camping!

Seeing as how I am so lucky to have a friend who's parents own property in the mountains, I get my fair share of camping in every summer... I love it!!

1~ I love to just look at the mountains, the flowers, the scenery... everything!

Indian Mountain
Clear Lake

Aspens in the Fall

2~ Fishing!! I caught my first trout last year! He was kinda small so we threw him back, but I still caught him!!
It's not the size that matters...

Fishing and relaxing

3~ Animals! I love to look at and try to find all the animals. While camping I've seen antelope, elk, ground squirrels, and a huge porcupine. Unfortunately I haven't had a lot of luck photographing them...but I try!
Fox tracks!

See those spots, they're antelope!

4~ Drink. I know it seems contradicting but drinking and camping go hand and hand. Relax, have a few drinks and toast some marshmallows. Then, pass out and start again the next day.

Ahhh... Watching the sunset with an ice cold drink

We always have a wide assortment of options

5~ Hike and climb. I love the mountains and trees and getting to the top is always the best!
See that big rock in the distance, not only are we hiking to it, we are climbing it!

I just came down from the rock. We ate our lunch on top of the bigger flat part of the rock. It was awesome!

What's your favorite part of camping? The fires? The smores? The skeeters!? See you next time!
