Into the wild...

Sorry for the slight hiatus, but I was camping!  Yeah, me, camping...and no it was not a 3 star hotel instead of a 5 star one!  It was actually a really fun, relaxing time.  Although my back ached a little from sleeping on the ground, I truly had a wonderful getaway.  The weather was phenomenal, allowing for a perfect beach day on Saturday.  There were 9 of us between 2 tents, but you really never would have known and it was great just hanging out by the fire at night and playing some drinking games.  You can't go camping without drinking games!  Although, one might have learned things that they could have done without during a little game of "Never Have I Ever," it was a lot of fun.  I only kid though because that game will never  get old, no matter how old I am!  We had visits from the neighborly skunks, squirrels and birds.  It's amazing how the animals are so used to people being around that they will come right up to you to see if there is any food or crumbs.  It's kind of nice though being able to enjoy nature like that and hearing all the sounds of night.  However, please explain to me why your bug bites don't actually itch until at least 3 days later????  I look forward to planning another camping trip for this summer or maybe even the fall!  Who's in????
