We went camping this weekend, and Rachel and Sam went along! Rachel is a gung-ho camper like me, and Sam is more like Lloyd: He’ll go, but he’ll really wish we brought a house with internet along. They were both great sports, and were very busy around the site.
Sam and Rachel had a bigger tent, so we all slept together like a big ol’ sleepover. I couldn’t get over how tall it was inside! So much standing room! I have a bit of envy, but am content with my ease of assembly of my own. …..mostly content……
It got good and cold, but we all brought enough stuff to stay warm. I need to remember to bring five times as much firewood as I think, though. I bought a bundle from a friend but it’s so dry it is gone in an hour. Luckily, some previous camper left a whole bunch.
I forgot to say the best part: We were the only people there!! It was totally empty and quiet. No people, no generators, just the sound of a stray cat getting into my bag of Sun Chips. Ahhh……..
Sorry for the vertical video. We did not get eaten by bears, by the way.
Thanks for camping with me, Sommerers!
Kristi says
Glad to see the bears left you alone. Camping with friends is always fun!!!
Brad says
That looks fun! Though I think I would be more worried about spiders than bears. Ugh… spiders…
Mark says
I want to do stuff like that. All it would take is for the craziness of life to pause for a weekend.
Lauren says
Yes, you do have quite a bit of stuff going on!
