Quite a lot of the time we hung out with therru's brother and his family.





You can see that he's really into period cooking.

Well, for many years we've joked about bringing soil to the isalnd, since it's bloody hard to put up tents with just 2 inches of dirt above the rocks. This camp ground is okay though, maybe four inches of dirt above the rocks ;)

Oh my goodness! That's funny...sort of... But I can relate to that. One of my very favorite venues here is out in the rain forest, by a beautiful river. Absolute perfection of dense woods and lees for camping, archery, etc. But...the soil is nearly solid with granite stones. Trying to sink an 18" iron stake for one's pavilion is almost impossible. I have damaged many a spike, and many, many portable holes in that ground. I empathize with your lack of soil! But krikey...4 inches? How do you do it??

I should mention though...that most of our sites are not like *that*. However...it is the one place that readily available stones can be had! Just not lovely big chunks as I see in the photo. These would all be smaller...about the size of potatoes, or baseballs, I should think.
