Lakeside Campsite

This was the lake campsite at Mason Lake I camped out on Tuesday night. It was pretty nice that night, although I didn't get any pictures, because I was dead tired after driving up two hours after work.

Styrofoam Canoe Blocks I Made

I cut up an old styrofoam sleeping pad, rolled it up, cut notches, and duck taped it all together. It worked well, far better then trying to let the kayak ride directly on the roof of the pickup.
