We looked at three different campgrounds for next month. The one near the lake has sites right along the water but they book up fast. The second option is further into the woods with more shade and less wind. We settled on the third choice which has good trail access and a group fire pit. I will send you the reservation link later today. Bring your own tent and sleeping bag. There is a store nearby for firewood and ice. We plan to arrive Friday afternoon and leave Sunday before noon. Let me know if you want to bring anything specific for the shared meals.

I have been testing a new sourdough starter for the past two weeks. The first batch turned out too acidic so I adjusted the feeding ratio. Now it is much more balanced with a nice tang. I baked a loaf yesterday and the crumb was open and airy. The crust had a good crackle. I will bring a loaf to the dinner on Saturday. Let me know if anyone has dietary restrictions I should account for. I can also make a small batch using spelt flour if needed. The recipe I used came from a bakery in Portland. It requires a long cold ferment which builds complexity.
