Growing up, the only family vacations we took were to hockey tournaments in the winter or camping in the Boundary Waters in the summer. When Justin & I got married, I wanted to continue taking camping trips with my husband, but life happened. Almost 6 years later, we finally used the tent and sleeping bags we received for our wedding.
We went north to the Catskills for the weekend and set up camp. Tannersville and Hunter are awesome little mountain towns. Once we got our campsite set up, we settled in for a quiet evening of veggie hot dogs, campfire Sangria and s’mores.
Saturday morning, we enjoyed a few bonfire breakfast burritos and then made our way to the Zipline Adventure tour. If you missed my recap of my Zipline experience, you can read it here. We celebrated afterwards with a stroll through Tannersville. There was a margarita involved followed up a face plant into a stream because I’m smooth.
The Catskills are incredible. We explored such a tiny area and we are working on getting back up north in the fall when the trees are colorful. We want to hike more and possibly even zip line again. We will definitely get up there in the winter for a ski day.
Just thinking about the quiet, beautiful mountain air makes me feel a little more relaxed on this Monday morning.
Love this!! How far was it??
Oof, take me to the mountains STAT! This is beautiful, and makes me want to get out and camp again DESPERATELY. 🙂
Gorgeous photos. I've never been to the Catskills.
Looks like a great trip! I've never been camping!
Yay I love love love that you camped here! I already want to go back 🙂
Ahhh, I love the Catskills! Unfortunately lately all I've been able to do is drive through them, but I definitely recommend coming back in the fall, if you can! I'll meet you for a drink 🙂
oh how beautiful! i have never heard of the catskills, but now i want to go!
camping is awesome but i'm into glamping…i will do all camping things but in the end, i need to sleep in a cabin with a working washroom. i'm too old to be stooping in the bushes! 😀
that looks amazing, and I totally agree, you should go back in the fall. I bet the trees are going to be gorgeous! I bet your face plant was epic 😉
What a relaxing little getaway. I love how often you guys travel and how different every trip seems to be for you!
I love these pictures! I don't know about camping, though… Hahaha!
