I am so behind in the family blog, that might as well start with the present and maybe work backwards? I promised Ben a birthday post and have a deadline, so watch this space.... Our family went camping! The comedy of errors even more entertaining knowing that our world is currently engrossed in all things camping. A list of snafus:
- Dan made the reservation back in February and we put it in our calendar and built our work schedule around it. Literally 5 minutes before we were about to leave Dan realized he booked the reservation for the following week. You would think we would get these things right, but both of us just laughed out loud.
- As a result, we ended up at Wild Plum (where we were suppose to camp in June and didn't get to) instead of Lakes Basin, the original plan.
- We were able to borrow back Woody, our vintage trailer, which is now officially adopted by my mom, which meant that things weren't exactly in the place we thought they would be. We both agree that this is the end of an era and will be in the market for our own trailer in the near future (since borrowing the ones from the motel and the campground don't seem to be working out the way we thought).
- The boys slept in hammocks and neither of them got much sleep.
- I ran out of wine.
- We went in search of the PCT and took a couple of wrong turns.
But just like all the other times we get a chance to go camping we all remember why we love it. I ticked all my camping requirements-- coffee outside, a nap, read a book, slept in a tent.
