Sniff. Sniff. There is nothing better than camping and concerts, hanging with thousands of Jesus Freaks.
And when I say, freak, I mean it in the most loving way.
But the decision was made months ago, even before gas prices went all outer limits on us. No Creation this year for us.
So in honor of Creation Festivals Past – this is my list of things to bring that we wished we had with us last year.
1. small radio to listen to concerns/main stage announcements while in camp. extra batteries.
2. kiddie pool. good to let kids cool off, sort of a substitute bath.
3. water guns and extra buckets. teens walking by our campsite like being squirted. except in the face for teen girls, because they most likely have make-up on even in that summer humidity.
4. a better way to store food at the campsite. some sort of a pantry system easy to pack away
5. games, deck of cards
6. chore chart for the kids, so they don’t think camping is Mom and Dad doing all the work.
Have you ever been to Creation? Do you like camping? Please share in the comments or feel free to link back to this post.

We had to miss the one in Washington this year too. I adore Creation and am so sad we could not make it this year!

Do you remember when there was only ONE Creation Festival? That’s how old I am.
I’d love to go to the West Coast version, but not driving, only by plane.
My husband has been mentioning that lately. I don’t know that we are up for the crowds and stuff, but it sounds cool.
We do enjoy camping. I think we are going to go in July with some friends. We went with them last year, and two families makes it even more fun–share the work, more fun for the kids etc.
yes, it’s always much more fun to camp with friends. if you ever go to Creation, make sure to let me know, so we can meet up. what blog fodder for us, eh?
