Caterpiller Camping






We got to go camping this last weekend. It was pretty fun. There were TONS and TONS of caterpillers though. It was CRAZY and kinda gross! They fell off the tree onto our tent all night long. You couldn't touch or sit on anything without flicking off 3 or 4 catapillers. Liv had fun and LOVED going on a hike with us in the morning. We had very yummy tinfoil dinners but ate them in the dark, so we might have eaten a caterpiller too!

Those Catapillars are grosso! You are so brave. Livies little sweat outfit is perfect for camping. She looks like she enjoyed it!

You know.... They just fried them up in Thailand for a snack. Roasting them over the fire may not have been too bad :0) It looks like you guys had a great time camping. I am jealous I had to work all weekend.

I guess fried caterpillars are better than raw...ugh. When I was a kid we drove somewhere in the mountains where the wooly bear caterpillars had hatched and I think we had to drive over them, crunching tons of them. Ewwww. That's how I remember the story anyway. Personally, I can't really remember it!

Sounds like lots of fun--looks like Livvie enjoyed it too.Caterpillers are better than flies! We had swarms of flies decend on us in the early days, but I won't go into that--I'll never forget it though.
