    Glad you had a great time with your grandson. I have two grandsons, 8 and 5 years old. Only waiting for cooler weather is stopping us from taking our first trip. Cannot wait to report. Take care.

    Great bushcraft furniture too.
    Thanks. Yes, Cameron loves his hammock. We've been using them for about five years now. He's 14 and says he'll never sleep on the ground again.
    Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional.

    You don't stop playing when you grow old - you grow old when you stop playing.

    Great trip report, looks like you had quite a nice setup, despite the rain setback. Great time that'll be remembered by your grandson forever.

    Eric, great report. I am visiting wales in November and would like to try it out there or somewhere else near Cardiff. Did you have to get permission from the Rangers? Are there bears??

    ...can make money; you are making memories that your grandson will never forget.
