We roughed it and had a great time. Just threw everyone in the tub as soon as we got back. Have a few pics to share.

Pipi was really fun for the kids.

Pic one: Dam Building, Pic two: playing in creek next to camp, pic three: kicking back with dad, Pic four: learning how in the meadow, Pic five: Oldest son enjoying view, Pic six: finding the biggest and most stick for fire and smores:)
We took a 5 gallon bucket and tapped into the bottom on one side with a pipe. It come out about 4 inches and we put a shower head on it. Paint the bucket black and hang it in the sun light. Water tends to get so hot you have to add a little cold water to it.

Also, Wally World had a porta shower that was the same concept. It was a black bag that you could fill and then hang anywhere. It's a little better because it doesn't take up any room when empty.

Not that either method will allow a leisurely shower, but it will get you went, soaped and rinsed. Just be quick.
