Castaic Lake

Help! How do I navigate this site?!?

So unfortunately, this past Summer, most of the Elat crew was occupied with other activities and we did not go on the usual amount of camping adventures that we normally have in the past. In fact, we only were able to organize a single expedition out into the wilderness. We decided to claim a new piece of territory, Lake Castaic.

- Rodney and Sam do a little 'sword fighting'

- Wow, Sia sure does look happy holding that big mallet in his hand

- Leslie and I... her first ever Elat Adventure!!!

As usual, Sam gets a little crazy on these trips. Above, he is dancing like a madman around the fire, then takes the usual ceremonial piss into the nature, and feels very relieved afterwards.

- Leslie was in charge of all the sandwich making. MMMMM so tasty, we love her!

Above, a couple of pictures from night time.

The real adventure from our trip is the story of the Potato's. While shopping at Ralph's, Nick and Sia had a brilliant idea - to roast some tasty Potato's on the fire for dinner. Instead of normal stuff, like sandwiches, hot dogs, whatever, they insisted on Potato's.

Of course, it would probably help if anyone knew how long to actually keep the things in the fire? But no, we decided to do it the Elat way, and make sure they were extra well done and crispy. Of course, Potato's don't get crispy from overcooking... just soft and mushy.

Below, we have Nick and Sam tending to the Potato's in the fire. After a loooong wait, everyone starts opening them up to discover the outside skins have been burned to a crisp, and the insides have been way overcooked. But, don't forget, that's how we like it!
