Winter Camping?! Are you Crazy? (YUP)

If any of you have experienced the fun of winter camping, then yay for you! Lastnight 6 of my friends decided to go out to Vedauwoo and set up camp. (This yes is the week that we have had negative double digits as our highs of the day.) We got to Vedauwoo and found our campsite. I stepped out of the car and nearly blew away...(50-60mph wind guts). Since i have experience with camping and starting campfires..i was nominated to start the fire in the wind. LOL that was a hoot! We got the fire going really well and then we pulled out the goodies and had smores. After that we were telling stories from our own camping experiences, decided that we knew all the constellations in the sky, and if not we made new ones up...lol. So nearing bedtime...we just have one tent and its a 4 person tent with 6 ppl to fit in. Talk about body heat and snuggling...I thought it was rather funny- but through the night we heard 'things' outside of our tent. which makes me get all excited and i start to laugh...so if there was something actually outside...it would have been gone by the sound of my laugh. All of this camping takes me back to the many upon many years in Girl Scouts! It was great fun with my friends that went out there and the coolest thing about it now...we can all say we have been winter camping
