Going camping is always a very exciting event for our family. We look forward to it most of the year, yet only go once or twice during the summer months. It involves a lot of preparations, a lot of discussions as to where to go, and what to take with us. This time was no different. I was trying to find something close such as
Timberland lake campground where we went last year. Being in the "wilderness" and at the same time very close from home creates a very safe feeling about the trip. My brother, who at the time of planning was going to join us was insisting on going a bit further into the woods of Pennsylvania. Since last year we went camping in "our neighborhood" we decided to follow my brother's advice and booked a site at
Colonial Woods Family Camping Resort. This campground had everything we were looking for: clean bathrooms and showers, big swimming and spray pools, mini-golf, open space and playground for kids. He also picked a date for the trip. Unfortunately, due to a family event - his daughter's birthday, he did not join us in this trip. Luckily, our friends decided to join us. They have never gone camping before, but were very interested in trying.
