A-camping We Will Go


I blinked and it was May already. This is crazy.

We have the house for a week to ourselves and the week's flying by so quickly. In about a week and a half we're off to go camping. Woo. Not actual camping but just sitting around inside an RV and grilling on our portable charcoal grill, we just bought a few weeks ago. Sweet. I am looking forward to this.

When I was younger I used to want to go camping and sit around a bonfire with marshmallows at the end of a long stick, getting nice and dark and soft and hot. Yummy. However, my family was not the camping type and the closest I had ever gotten was putting chairs together and throwing a blanket over it and pretending it was a tent out in the middle of the woods. This isn't going to be out in a tent in the middle of the woods but I will have tall pines and birches nearby and there are areas where you could set up tents and go a-tenting. There is a bonfire area where you can make s'mores and there are hiking trails and boats, fishing and a few other wilderness type recreation. We will be biking around and around and spending the evening roasting marshmallows and falling asleep to the buzz of mosquitoes and snuggling under the warm blankets.

Will write soon.

Me.

...because to him, it felt like home.

oh and what about roughing it with this... a brand new breakfast buffet for two!!! That's right, you and a guest will enjoy a one day stay at a beautiful breakfast buffet with all the french toast you can eat.

umm, i thought you said "no more buffets"? French toast? I hope you have the money for it... hehe. We'll be bussing the dishes and running around finding water for people eating there.
