Sequoia Park Camp-out [page 2]
We got to the Buckeye Flat camp-site about 2:30; it was already quite full. We found two sites with areas flat enough to pitch tents. After getting our tents set up and food stored in the bear box it was time to really start Camping drinking. Tom mentioned that you can't really say you're camping until you've got a beer in your hand. Or something similar. Carl and I settled for some Merlot.
Peaceful. We sat, talked, sipped drinks, looked at the camp critters, and had a good time. We did not go overboard on snacks (in spite of skipping lunch) so dinner was prepared at a reasonable hour (where reasonable is defined as early enough to clean up after dinner before it got too dark). After dinner Tom made a fire which lasted longer than we did; we hit our sleeping bags pretty early.
