Sometimes you just "roll with it". Thats what we did. Dear Lord- thanks for a great sweaty stinky adventure filled weekend with my guys- I love them Lord- and thank you for them...amen!
It was an interesting trip to say the least.
It was an RV park.... which apparently gives you the opportunity to have a "full hook-up" but that means you have about 8 feet of room between campers-- (not sites) and apparently it also means- you'll be eating dinner on a picnic table that is 3 feet from your neighbors "poop-pipe"
OK- so we mostly ate inside- it was hot- so that was workable.
Did I mention 90 + degrees? HOT, very HOT.
So, Saturday we went to Cabelas. yehaw.
Boys all had fun.
We also explored a cute little town... Blissfield or something, where "Floyd" the Barber (OK- some other name- but SAME kind of guy) cut DH's hair.... not sure about the haircut- but DH fellin love with Floyd. (oy)
We also scoured a few antique shops- I found a very cool old bell- sans clapper- for the mantle... and a cute little pin to wear on my silk kiri.
Saturday night was a big campfire- pyro fest---- until we noticed a disgusting SMELL.... it was the ground... and it smelled like rotten eggs everytime the sun went down- I refuse to even imagine why. I don't want to know.
Sunday- was even hotter- so, of course- we went to the Zoo. I managed to find Knitting paraphernalia at the zoo;)- they carried Lanternmoon baskets- so I picked one up that will work great for the rest of my summer knitting./camping.
The Monkeys were sweating--- (ok- I made that up) but we sure were- so we went to dinner -then back to the campground to the "heated pool" heated for polar bears- I suppose! ....Then played games in the camper...scrabble wth a preschooler and 2 teens is a trip.
We also played some card games that I still am not sure how to play--- but we had a great time.
Sunday night- one of my guys- whose identity is here protected--- got a stomach thing---and tossed his cookies ---in the sink. NOT fun to clean out a camper sink in the middle of the night.
He was fine the next day.... oh, camping is always an adventure!!
Monday we headed home---
Busy, stinky fun and silly- I'm always amazed- 1) that we survive--- and 2) that the same people who nearly kill each other in a house that is plenty big enough--- can get along so well.. in a 100th of the space.... (don't bother I didn't do the math- I made those numbers up)
Anyway- that was the camping adventure--- more pics on the flickr badge--- ;)
