Let's Go Camping





This was not my idea, but I went all the same. Ray wanted to go camping over Labor Day so we made a reservation at a campsite and went. I made him take the gun and keep it in the tent while sleeping. Alas, we survived and by the second night, I didn't think it was necessary to carry firearms. We did see some bear scat on the trail, but no sign of the furry beasts. The first night the skies were clear, but our neighbors were more concerned with partying than listening to the sounds of nature. We had to sleep with our iPods plugged into our ears to block out the neighbors outdoor speakers. The fuel for the lantern didn't fit so we had to go to bed early by the light of our flashlight. Then the rains began. We managed to have some fun which included shopping in Seward, went and saw the ugly nanny movie which seemed better than sitting in the tent for another night. We managed to find some fuel that would fit our lantern so we movied the cooler into the tent and played triple yahtzee. We were ready to come home and warm up, but the scenery was gorgeous even in the rain. The ultimate goal of the weekend was to check out the tent before Ray's pending moose hunt and we accomplished that.
