A Thousand Words Thursday
June, 2005 Every year we camp on the beach. The site we reserve has the most amazing tree we've dubbed the "climbing" tree. The kids have a blast on it and it becomes the center for imagination. Looking for our next trip this fall and reserving that same spot that provides hours of extra fun!

How fun. Tara loves trees like that. My niece has a great tree in her yard that Tara discovered this weekend while playing with her cousins! She's such a tomboy sometimes!

I love the monkeys!!!! Kids being kids is the best. Heck, I want to climb in that tree.
June 11, 2009 at 3:46 AM
Great shot! Mine is not half as good. It's plain yucky, in fact. ;)

Amazing place to camp! What fun!!

What a great shot! I was a tree climber when I was a kid - the Princess Nagger has tried to climb our apple tree out back a few times, but that tree the boys are in looks like the best climbing tree! ;)

That tree looks like so much fun...and it is low so they can get in it a lot easier...Zach would love it!
June 11, 2009 at 5:07 AM
I love big old trees..they make the best pictures! We have one that we take pictures on every time we go to the beach!
June 11, 2009 at 5:16 AM
It looks like you've found the BEST spot for family vacation. :) That tree looks like fun.
June 11, 2009 at 5:19 AM

Cool tree! Good times!

There is something special about trees and kids. I have great childhood memories about a willow tree at my grandparents house. Loved climbing that thing. I hope your kids have just as wonderful memories of their camping trips and their 'climbing tree.'
June 11, 2009 at 5:53 AM
Oooh, that looks like fun! I've never camped on a beach...beaches being few and far between up here. I'll have to add it to the list!
June 11, 2009 at 5:55 AM
Oh, what fun. I love it! What a great tree :D
Thanks for hosting!
June 11, 2009 at 5:55 AM

Boys will be boys. My son loves to climb trees. The boys look like they had fun camping and especially climbing the tree here. Great photo!
June 11, 2009 at 6:19 AM

June 11, 2009 at 6:20 AM
Great picture!

Great photo! Never underestimate the importance of a good climbing tree!

Family camping trips were always a major highlight in my childhood. And camping on the beach sounds like great fun! Your boys look like they are having the time of their lives!
And what a great climbing tree.....I like it since it seems low to the ground but that's a "mom" talking! LOL!
June 11, 2009 at 7:00 AM
Love the shot!!!
Looks like a great climbing tree. I know you all have fun with that one. We had a tree all bent and crooked at our cabin when I was growing up, I know just how fun they can be!! Enjoy your trip back this fall!!
June 11, 2009 at 7:02 AM
That's a great shot! That tree looks like alot of fun, I can see why your kids love it.
June 11, 2009 at 7:46 AM
fun tree! I linked up too!
June 11, 2009 at 8:01 AM
My boy couldn't believe that was him! And, he's looking forward to going again this year - we'll see what happens with our vacation plans though ...
June 11, 2009 at 8:08 AM
Sounds like a great spot ? Is it local ? ( to us anyways?)Or is it a secret spot!!! LOL! We have never camped on the beach but were just considering it!
June 11, 2009 at 8:12 AM
That tree looks like a blast. I was just talking with a friend last night about how the thought of my daughter climbing trees scares the crap outta me...but that tree looks like the perfect tree for climbing!
June 11, 2009 at 8:16 AM
My son would totally dig that tree. Great picture. Too fun!
June 11, 2009 at 8:17 AM
What a great pic! And what cuties!! :)
June 11, 2009 at 9:23 AM
Oh that's a pretty great tree! Our beach (in NJ)doesn't have trees, so that's pretty cool.

What a great shot... And that tree, is amazing. Oh how my little guy would love it.
June 11, 2009 at 10:01 AM
That's looks like a cool tree! A lot of fun! Great picture.

What a cool place!! I fondly remember camping as a kid.

I love that tree! I hope someday we can camp with you again. This year there's hope -- we bought a new tent last month, AND Rick is no longer in a fishing club that ruins half our weekends. Yay!
June 11, 2009 at 12:29 PM
I love that tree! I remember as a kid there was nothing I loved more than climbing a tree like that.
June 11, 2009 at 12:44 PM
How fun! My husband and his family always used to camp out by the beach (we're from Northern California), but since we're out here in Vegas, we haven't had the chance to do it!
June 11, 2009 at 1:19 PM
I LOVED trees like that as a kid!!
June 11, 2009 at 2:13 PM
My son has found his love for climbing tress. Love that shot!!
June 11, 2009 at 3:51 PM
Great pic! That climbing tree looks like just the right size.
June 11, 2009 at 4:05 PM
this tree is so awesome Jen! i had a climbing tree when i was a kid and for some reason there just don't seem to be any around the northwest... you can't really climb and evergreen :P
June 11, 2009 at 6:14 PM

June 11, 2009 at 9:19 PM
That is a great tree! My kids would have a blast on it!
June 11, 2009 at 9:35 PM
DEFINITELY worth a thousand words! Love it. BTW, thanks again for the inspiration yesterday. Check out my post!
June 12, 2009 at 7:25 AM
That tree ROCKS!!!
June 12, 2009 at 7:13 PM

I almost didn't see the other child, lol.
