Camping at DeGray Lake

Nothing says camping like a good downpour! When we arrived at our tent site it was not raining but we knew rain was coming so we worked on building a shelter first. We knew it would take too long to put the tent up so we started on the tarp. We got it about half way up before the rain came, and came... so Greg and I got wet putting up the rest of the tarp. After that we had a nice dry place to sit.
The sun came out and we now have tent and tarp up.
We had a great time playing down by the water with our friends...
and on the boat ride... well for the first 10 min of it anyway,

All the kids


The guys went to play golf and the girls and kids went to.... Tarantula Island. 
The park ranger is giving us an educational talk about the island and the critters that live on the island. Thankfully we did not find any tarantula's but did find lots of daddy long legs!
After our trip to trarantula island we then headed over to the visitor center where the park ranger showed us some snakes (yuck) and....

an alligator... The kids loved touching both the snakes and alligator.

Can you find the frog in this picture? Look closely...
