Waking up and hanging out in the tent, Marco caught this sweet moment when Ember was just alternating between starring at me and grabbing my hair. We got into the campgrounds late Friday night, but Saturday we found the best campsite in the daylight, secluded and next to a river. We went with some great friends for @grandmas_dentures birthday, and hanging out at the campsite was fun and relaxing, even though Marco and I were so tired from the week and the amount of energy Ember has been needing lately. We didn't pack enough warm bedding for the night, so we were cold the first night, but Saturday Marco drove out and picked up one for us and one to share with Megan. Saturday morning Megan and @raaacharles also made an amazing #vegan breakfast over the fire in a cast iron wok that was essentially tofu, potatoes, and greens.. After we set up Saturday morning, we hung out around our beautiful campsite together and made more food and waited to go to the hotsprings until later. When we went to soak just before dusk, the hike was beautiful, but the private tubs were all full there were a lot of drunk bros (mostly of the country variety) in the community area who were posturing to each other and neglecting their dogs. We tried to fix the drain of the one empty private tub for, like, an hour, until realizing it just wasn't going to happen, then almost went on the community area were all the bad boundaries bros were, but finally just decided to leave without soaking because of a weird violent remark one of them made to Marco as we were starting to set up our stuff and their other behaviors we observed. The people were clearly unsafe, some were peeing off the balcony, they had glass containers, they were sexually harassing people, they were stumbling drunk. I need to NEVER go to #bagbyhotsprings again. Sunday morning my friend Erica and I left camp in the morning with Ember to try to soak before the #badboundariesbros or other crowds were there with success! Though the place was a mess with glow sticks, candles, alcohol containers of all kinds, clothing, and general garbage strewn about everywhere. #camping #parenting #badboundaries #hotsprings #PNW
