Today's trees made while remembering lots of camping trips- good and not-so-much.
It's been too many years since we last camped. One of those not-so-much trips led the boys veto the idea over and over afterwards. In their defense, it was a really bad trip. Hot, too hot for a campfire, too hot to cook, huge horseflies, mosquitoes, etc... There were tears and tantrums from a few of us, until we finally gave up and took our sweaty-dirty-camping-clothed selves to the somewhat fancy restaurant at the Lodge down the road, and paid way too much for a mediocre meal in air conditioning.
I'm looking forward to camping again, once it's just the two of us.
There may be way too many Big Plans floating around in my head for the just-the-two-of-us days to come, but a soul can dream of trees…
