Camping in the Eastern Sierra

We decided it was time to go camping again. So we packed up the cars and headed up to a campground in the Eastern Sierra, near Bishop. Some of us are pictured here at Lake Sabrina.
Gavin and Brielle loved the rocks, dirt, tents, and being able to be outside all the time. They particularly liked chasing the lizards. But nothing was better than sitting in their own camp chairs, drinking a cool lemonade. At night the temperatures dipped into the 50's which made it nice for sleeping in the warm sleeping bags.
Another treat that the kids liked was riding in the back of the pickup around the campsite with Uncle Evan.
Some of us went to Bodie, the old, abandoned ghost town north of Bishop. Many of the buildings are just the way they were 150 years ago when Bodie was a booming gold town with over 10,000 residents.
