I went to wallymart to pickup a new tarp for our new tent, then took my boys to McD's for a couple of happy meals.
I tweeked my back helping my youngest out of the shopping cart seat so I came home and took a nap.

Checking in.
I've been camping all weekend down by Hat Creek. Caught my first fish in quite a long time. They stocked the creek on Friday so there were some good sized fish to be had. 😀 Got rained on and man was the lightening close.
Coming home was an eye opener. If you think it's smokey here, try Quincy or the Sierraville area. The fire in the Napa area seems to be getting the press, but there's an awful lot on fire up here. 🙁

Based on our trip last fall, I'm guessing that got you a burger, small fries, and a drink with no refills. 😕 I couldn't believe how expensive it was down there!

Offline I haven't watched the news in a few days. That fire would explain all the smoke in the valley. It's been pretty dreary.

We had a lightning strike within a couple hundred feet of our home up here in Pollock Pines, Thank God there was no fire. It knocked out our power for a couple hours.

I think the Valley smoke is coming from a fire near Napa. It's one of the biggest going.
Any bets on TNF closing the roads now?

I thought living in the sticks was supposed to be relaxing! Now I have to think about snow all winter and fire all summer! 😀

Offline Hat Creek is our favorite camping place. We go there every Summer. In fact, we have reservations in July. Our favorite campground is the Hat Creek Hereford Ranch Campground. From there I can fish Hat Creek, Pitt River, Fall River, and McLoud River.
