One of our most favorite things to do as a family is camp, or as our
friends now call it, "RVing". I was brought up in a family
that loved to camp. That is the way our family spent our vacations. Thank goodness Bob developed the same love for it
that I have. We have seen some wonderful places over the
years, but I think my most favorite place is the campground we
built, along with the help of some wonderful friends, on Bob's
parents farm in Lyons. It is bordered by the Santiam River on
one side, and Johnston Creek on the other. We named the creek
this because Bob's father built the creek several years ago to keep
the rock quarry dry. His father always wanted a camping place
for family and friends to be able to gather and have fun.
After the state parks changed their reservation system (1996) and we
had to wait in line for two hours to get into a park we had
reservations for, we decided to build our own. We started to
build Johnston Creek Campground in 1997, every year we try to do
some kind of improvement.
