Strawberry...was COLD!

It was a very different year at Strawberry. Weather-wise, that is. The same warm, fun, and super kid-friendly community was there. And we even got to camp next to the same gracious couple we met last year. Great music too. But the weather was, well, wet and cold vs. last year's hot sunshine that encouraged play in the lake. The rain wasn't just misty gentle rain; it poured for hours. Luckily we were in our RV, and although we spent ALL Saturday huddled in the RV, we didn't mind too much at first. Compared to others in their tents, we were fine. But after a brief break Sunday morning when we got our hopes up and enjoyed the festivities outdoors, when it started to pour again, we decided it was time to go home...early. Couping Tesla indoors for many more hours just wasn't ideal.There were plenty of hours where it wasn't raining...and I've got a few pictures to show our fun at Strawberry. We will go back for sure, and I'm glad to have experienced how the festival came together and still had a great time in spite of the rain. Folks were out there watching the performers in the rain, people shared food and drinks, and as we tried to leave and realized our battery had died (since we listened to the festival radio so much from inside our RV), our neighbor installed a new one and refused to be reimbursed. So although it wasn't the best circumstance, I still feel it was worth it. Tesla too just loved being outdoors and seeing so many kids running around.

It's nice to be home though. Lots of laundry, and recovering...Dav is a bit sick which sucks. But even the time stuck in the RV was rather special. We got a lot of reading done, and it just felt snuggly as a family. Wet and cold, but overall good weekend!
