Going to Lassen

Yesterday we all woke up a little earlier than normal out of excitement. We packed up our little trailer and filled up the truck. We left around ten. We drove the whole day through different ghost towns and desserts until we reached the mammoth lakes area. Mom had already had a campground picked out that was free to stay at. We soon realized why. We drove down a one way ten foot wide gravely, dusty road for about a half an hour with our trailer flopping and bumping behind us. We finally reached the campground named deadman creek. We drove around to find a campsite long enough for us. We drove what we thought was a loop until we found it was a dead end with a sign saying "warning! Deep sand! Back up!" As you could probably expect, me and mom were panicking. My dad was cool though and we backed out. We found a site and parked. We emptied ourselves if you know what I mean, than walked around. We found a nice little creek with ten inch blackish green fish. The lava rocks weighed literally nothing. A baseball sized rock weighed as much as a pebble, and the pebbles weighed as much as a twig. We had meat mixture for dinner and conked out. According to mom, I did some verbal drama in my sleep. We woke up around eight and ate an awesome (in my opinion) breakfast with nutella on toast and hot cocoa. We packed up again and left again around ten. Now we are on the road again for another day of driving.
