I'm excited to say, that we got another fall camping trip in this year. Hubby and I decided to camp the first night by ourselves. Woot! Oh, we needed the time alone. It was a relaxing, romantic, camping date night. And surprisingly, I did not take my camera this time.
The second night we picked up a few stragglers - 2 kiddos.
Although it had rained a bit, we relaxed in the camper, reading, knitting, drawing, one kiddo doing school homework, and chatting. After the rain stopped we started up the fire, and had more fun with s'mores and such.
The nights got down to the 40's, and even so, we hunkered in for the weekend, and enjoyed what may be our last camping trip this season.
This time I baked homemade buttermilk cornbread, and some chili (in anticipation for rain and lack of a campfire), ahead of time.
One funny to share - our awning had not been at a correct slant to drain off the rain and filled with water. I started to move the legs, and he said, "no I will get it." Well, he got it all right. Ha ha ha ha! He was in slippers and was standing under it. He let the water off and "wooooosh!" Off it went, soaking his feet. When I ran around the truck to see, he was hopping on one foot and one slipper remained alone, flooded with rain water. It was mighty cold water too. He proceeded to say, "I guess I shouldn't have done that" in a very calm voice. Which I responded (along with the girls) with a round of laughter and almost pee'd my pants. Good think he had extra socks. Ha ha ha ha! Ah, I guess you had to be there.
Rain is in the forecast today, so I plan to pop the camper back up later this week, sweep it out, and restock the linens.
