Weekend Camping

We packed up our house on wheels, and headed out to spend the St. Patty's weekend camping. The weather was fantastic.The boys and I followed Senior up in the Jeep, and once at the campground we went "Topless" and rode around all weekend with the wind whipping our hair and the sun shinning down.  and the trip almost enjoyable--the Gnats were awful. Didn't matter what or how much stuff you sprayed, they wouldnt leave us alone. 



The best part about our weekend was we did not watch one bit of TV. No MSM, No Nothing. Our only entertainment was the kids playing and throwing rocks off a bridge, and sitting by a campfire at night watching the flames dance, Senior had his beer, and I had a few margharitas after the kids went night night.. We talked about all sorts of things, but the most important being that I am contemplating College. I want to go in to nursing.

The boys enjoyed all the wildlife they got to see. There was a rabbit family near our site. They guys have never seen wild rabbits before. Senior wished he had a snare though....  lol 
One thing we did do, was to eat food  soon to expire from our storage...I did not have to buy anything, except drinks. Got back early Sunday, cleaned up the portable house, and now ready for the next trip....

  1. Welcome back. Here's what you missed.

    Check out the new presidential executive order passed after business hours on Friday. What's ours is now theirs.

    It's a rehash of a 1950" EO but now updated to include peacetime operations. The fact that "B.H. O-hole" did this is extra disturbing.

    1. We have a wild family of hares in the woods out behind the house. they (and the squirrels)ate my tomatoes last year.

      I grow a heirloom variety, Ox Heart, that grows enormous size and extremely tasty tomatoes. These critters would wait until they were just before ready to pull and then take one bite out of them. Made me mad. LoL
