TRADITIONS
We don't really have many traditions here except one. Every summer our family takes a week long camping trip to Moses Lake, WA. My husband grew up with his parents having a small place on the lake and he spent a lot of time there as a kid. Naturally, after having children of his own, he wanted that tradition to continue. It is hot there. It isn't the prettiest lake and I think it has gotten worse over the years. There have been many times we have gone and it seems people use the beaches as their personal dumping ground. Most of the time I am really upset by how people treat things, but there it seems especially bad.
Someday we may need to find a new place to take the kids. But for now, this is our tradition.
Our family always has a really great time just unplugging from the world and being together. The kids love swimming and building castles in the sand. It makes me sad that people don't take care of places like this and help to keep it beautiful for everyone to enjoy.
If you have a tradition, holiday or otherwise, please link up to Sharon's blog and tell us about it.
That's sad that people treat the lake as their personal dumping ground, but it looks like you guys always have a great time regardless. :D
