I hit the bed last night at about 8:30PM. Don't know what was on TV,don't really care. All I know is that I woke up and it was 5:45AM. Everything on me is sore. I feel like I just got back from the gym after being away for a few weeks. It's that soreness that lets you know that you've had a really good workout. Well I guess I did, the half mile walk to the campsite 4-5 times everyday and then getting lost trying to find the latrine vs the port-a-potty in the dark is more than enough to be sore today. My son fell asleep at about 7PM - he took a hot bath, got dressed for bed and when we looked in on him, he was spread out on top of his blankets, his build a bear monkeys and other things. Try moving a 134LB 8 year old - good luck. (Note to self - he needs a men's 9.5 boot before the next trip)
Now that my son is on the bus heading off to school, I can finish washing the clothes we took and get the smoke smell out, repack the containers with all of our gear, set-up and clean up our tent and let the sleeping bags air out, reapply the silicone sealer to the seams and then relabel everything.
I am REALLY looking forward to the next trip. I didn't realize how much I missed going camping until this past weekend. I know my wife and the girls are not coming - they already told me that if they couldn't make reservations they would just stay home. But, my son and I are back out there in Dec to rough it again.
Today, it looks like a day to sleep. No one in the next room snoring, no one unable to sleep because it's their first time camping, and cute little baby crying - just me, my warm bed in a quiet house. I will put that C-Pap mask on and knock out. I will not have a problem going back to sleep - count on that!!!
I know - you're thinking "what about dinner tonight?" Well, finally found some pizza that is as close to Famous Pizza as we could. The pie was so big, the sides had to be bent to fit in the box,nice crispy crust and no reflux. That is dinner tonight - I will do something for them tomorrow night.
The dog is in his crate snoring - I am going to my room and do the same - Dog Tired!!!!
