These were always my favorite kind of episodes of the olden days of One Tree Hill, where the gang was transplanted outside of Tree Hill, North Carolina and somewhere else, such as when Nathan and Lucas went to the Bobcats game, when they went to Rachel's cabin, just episodes that really showed why we love these characters and just how awkward and funny their interactions can be. I didn't like the stuff with Clay and I really hope his wife is gone for good. The show's already done enough ghost angles with Dan and unfortunately it looks like we're getting another with the boy whose heart he took on.

But outside of that, a funny and charming episode of OTH.moreless

Camping, thunderstorms and bonding make for a very funny episode of OTH...

In stark contrast to the previous episode where there were deep emotions, episode 8 provided us with much more light-hearted and comedic interactions between the characters. Whilst the boys of Tree Hill(including Julian) embark on a camping trip to get to know each other better, the girls (Haley, Brooke and Quinn) stay behind and do there own thing. The scenes between the girls, especially Haley and Brooke are made more hilarious when a thunderstorm hits as they negotiate a fortune-teller and 'who-is-more-scared' scenarios. Camping gives Nathan an opportunity to talk and bond with Julian who has reservations about having kids. The various 'scary' stories also provide for many funny scenes throughout. We also see this episode Clay still having trouble letting go of his past with Sara. But he finally is able to open up to someone in the form of Quinn. They bond and are drawn closer to each other so the coming weeks will be interesting. Also, Dan is wanting to go on a holiday - to Tree Hill...

Although I don't think this episode tops the previous one, it still provides for great viewing. In my opinion, I needed a light and very funny episode like this after the emotional ride I took the week before. There were enough unanswered questions like 'what will Dan do back in Tree Hill?' or 'will Nathan speak to his father after what he did for him?' for me to be continually intrigued. In the end, camping and the bonding between certain characters makes this episode a hard one to forget!moreless
