My Family Camping Trip

My family camping trip was last year in October. All the boys in my family were going and most of them were from out of town, so it was kind of a big deal. We were going to Roosevelt Lake in Globe, Az. We departed from my uncle’s house at 4:00 am. We were on our way to meet my other three uncles and all my cousins in Casa Grande. After we got all the stuff loaded into all the trucks and cars we were on our way to Roosevelt Lake. It’s a two hour drive from Casa Grande, so I was bored most of the way there. When we got there it took us 30 minutes to unload all of our camping gear. After we were done unloading my uncle told me ‘’ I’m about to launch the boat into the water and parked it by our campsite, want to come? I said ‘’Yes.
When I went down by the lake I saw three snakes in the water, so I ran back up the hill to the campsite and got my rifle bb gun. When I saw the snakes again I shot one in the mid-section of its body and guts squirted out of his side into the lake. After that my uncle took all the oldest boys fishing in his boat. We didn’t catch any fish. When we got back to the campsite we grilled some hamburgers, then I got into my uncles truck and turned it on and took a nap with the a/c running. When I woke up it was night time and all my cousins were down at the boat with a fire started and we started fishing some more. We fished all night; we finally stopped fishing at dawn. We caught 12 Bluegill, 2 catfish, and 3 bass. We cleaned them, cooked them, and ate them for breakfast. After we ate we went to sleep and my uncles woke up and got into the boat and went fishing. When we woke up my oldest cousin had made us a five star breakfast. It tasted so good. After I ate I went down to the bank and went fishing. After about 20 minutes I caught a medium size Bluegill. It felt wet and slimy. When I put the fish back into the water I saw a huge Bass jump out of the water. When my cousin caught a catfish I asked him if I could hold it...
