Tent Camping! Yes, I said TENT

We, Richards, are an adventurous group. Alright, not TOO adventurous but we did give a try to tent camping. We had a lot of fun. Despite a thunderstorm and learned a few things. For instance, have a back-up meal planned if you don't want to cook outside in a thunderstorm. Here's a slide show of the trip!
