Santana Cherokee Winter Campout

The Santana Cherokee had their annual winter campout up in Big Bear this year at the Grey Squirrel Resort. As was the case 2 years running, mother nature did not cooperate with us and provide the winter wonderland that we wanted for our trip. Shorts and some tee-shirts were more the order for daytime activities as the temps were in the low 60’s. But the Princesses still made due and fun was had by all. Friday night consisted of Pizza at one of the local eateries. The girls kept busy that night by playing pool or just basically jumping all over the beds in one of the lofts. Laughter filled the place until the wee hours. Saturday consisted of a great breakfast then everyone packed up and took a trip across the lake to the Discovery Center to enjoy the sites then the tribe took a nice nature hike. Lunch was held afterwards at another one of the many eateries then back to the cabins. Braves napped and kids played until dinner. Our Hunter Gatherers made a great rib and chicken dinner with all the fixings. The rest of the evening was spent relaxing and enjoying ice-cream for desert. All in all even without snow, the Cherokee had a fantastic weekend high up on the mountain!
