I love summer in Alberta FULL Vibe the beach:later that day:My buddy cooking breakfast in the rain:Our humble wet slug infested abode ;Dgratuitious shots of my adorable daughter: this is my backyard:

Awsome I went camping last Sunday til Tuesday with two of my friends. It was a blast. We took his blazer though because for one I didn't want to take my car and expose it to all the debris and two there would be no way in hell we could have fit three people and all the stuff we brought (removed). It's a good thing I didn't bring her because after hte big storm a huge limb from the tree above our site fell and landed on the neighbors bronco and partly on my friend's Blazer I love camping though!

Looks like you had a good time. I just got back from camping, myself. I thought the cold and rain here was bad. Sadly, I spent so much time with my new camera learning how to use the different features before I left that my batteries died after about 2 photos once I got there. Oh well. It's only 50 miles to the mountains so it's not like I can't get there any time I want.

Very nice pics Carrie, but where are you hmm?I agree, the Vibe is an awesome camping vehicle! All it needs is a pull out table like the Aztek (i think?)

I'm off again to a cabin at a lake for this week

wow! with that much stuff crammed into the vibe and the size of that tent (!) i'd have to question your use of the word 'camping'! I've seen people relocate all their belongings to a new home with less than that!I'm sure you had a good time and glad to hear you didn't test the 'tornado-dynamics' of the car.
I have signatures turned off so I'm not even sure what mine says in this space!
