Took my youngest brother and two youngest cousins out on a hike while we were camping at Bastrop State Park. The family has decided not to have Thanksgiving at the house anymore and we go camping instead :thumbup:

My grandparents and dad set this up because the weather was supposed to turn kinda bad so we would have a place to eat/cook/watch football.

The start of the trail that I forgot was 8.5 miles long...

Didn't really get any good trail shots.

This little guy decided he wanted to hang out when we stopped:

Not a good shot but I got tired of splitting wood with the RC-4 so I taught my brother how to do it.

Only knife shot I took:

Yup...we have gone there every year for Thanksgiving for a while now. I like it.

Also, the RC-4 is still plenty sharp after pounded through a bunch of Red Oak.:thumbup:
