Story

On our drive to California, we pulled over at the lake to stop for dinner. Everyone wanted to camp there, so we pulled out a tent and spent the night before heading to Burney Falls the next day. At the camp area, there was a fun boulder pile with a shelter. Anthony and I wanted to sleep under the boulder, but Mom said no. We took some fun pictures of the sunset and enjoyed an evening in solitude.
