Cabin Camping

Sorry folks, it has been a while since I wrote.  Not like anyone is really reading any of these...  :(
My wife and I finally got the opportunity to break away for a weekend and just relax.  It was a much needed get-a-way! Labor Day weekend wasn't planned for laboring in our calendar...it was planned for rest and relaxation and doing absolutely nothing.  And that is exactly what we did.  Little of nothing.  We decided to go camping but unfortunately it was a little late in the planning so we had to drive 6 hours away to get there. That's okay...I took all day Friday off work.

We got to the campground and it was a bit crowded but no worries.  We go into the cabin (very small one) and unpacked.  Then we needed to run to the store for all the groceries.  We didn't get the cabin we wanted so ours didn't have a grill.....we decided to just buy an electric George Forman and a skillet....really going to make it easy!


Friday night the rains began.  We decided to buy Subway sandwiches so we didn't have to cook so late as we were tired from the long drive.....good thing....rain would not have been an easy task to cook in. Little did we know that was the beginning of a long weekend of rain.  Good thing we had the cabin.  We did nothing and hung out in the cabin most of the time.   few walks in the woods on a trail....a few walks for poor Mavrick.

By the time Monday morning rolled around (still sprinkling) I decided that since I didn't have any meetings on Tuesday, we would stay one extra day.  The camp was nearly deserted by Monday afternoon and then the real rain began....all night long again.  Tuesday morning we packed the car in the sloshing puddles and downpour....then drove back home in rain all the way.....it was still relaxing.

Now the real test...can we keep the peace about us? Let's hope so even if it is just for a few days. Peace my friends!
