Grammie and Grandpa like to have Quincy over about once a week. Usually he gets to stay the night in his very own room, but since it's finally warmed up enough outside Grammie had to have Quincy over for a 'camp out'. 
Quincy got to do lots of fun things on his 'camp out' like toasting marshmallows to make smores. (Grandpa Loren said Quincy didn't have the patience to sit there and toast the marshmallow, he was more content to eat them out of the bag.) Still, he enjoyed the smore making activity, though Grammie says he ate more un-toasted marshmallows than toasted ones.
Later when it got dark they set up the tent in the backyard and put their cots and blankets in it to sleep on. They read books in the dark tent with flashlights. Quincy even got to wear a special headlamp. They had lots of fun 'camping', but eventually came inside to sleep since Quincy was distracted by all the noise of cars driving by on the street and other outside noises.
Also, while at Grammie and Grandpa's Quincy got to go to the Clark County Fair. Uncle Scott and Uncle Karter were working there... so they got to go for free.
Quincy saw lots of animals... he was a little tired and crabby from having so much fun the night before that I heard he didn't get to enjoy the animals as much as the previous petting zoo he went to, but I think that he liked it overall. They saw lots of carnival rides, the Ferris wheel, animal exhibits, a rodeo show, and ate yummy 'fair food'.
By the time Quincy came back home to us... he was exhausted!
He can't wait for his next adventure there, maybe next year he will be able to camp through the whole night.....

For the record...the camp out was w Grammie only! Grandpa took a few pictures but he doesn't like camping. I'm game for anything - especially when grandkids are involved!
