Stereotypes

So, how does a group of just-graduated high school students celebrate? Quietly, camping near their parents' or grandparents' permanent camper, then spending the day on a 16-foot pontoon which only holds 4.

Or so the story goes. We don't really know, but that's what the other campers thought of us this weekend.

In reality, we were a group of 10 20-somethings, all with at least one college degree. We were quiet, but we didn't know anyone in any of the permanent campers set up in the park. And the pontoon was just a mix-up - the woman at the desk thought Luke asked about a fishing boat.

We did have a fantastic weekend. We had two sites next to each other, and set up two tents - our tent and "The Lodge", a tent we borrowed from Ben and Sarah. We spent Saturday out on a regular pontoon boat that fit all of us, fishing, swimming, and playing poker. I had plenty of food for all and only forgot one thing - the butter for the pudgy pies. Not bad. We finished the weekend by going out for dinner at a local restaurant before driving back to the Cities.

Happy Birthday Nick!

I hope you were not drinking. You would be too young for that.

Did you get 29 candles to fit on your pudgy pie? Sounds like you had a great birthday and keep those rumors going.
