camping

It has been a busy week, mostly.

Griff and I filled the old furnace air return with gravel and concrete and yesterday we set the tile.

But David invited us to go camping and that is an invitation I cannot turn down.

Of course the tear is in Washington State, but we have tents and sleeping bags and sleeping pads and such. We can easily scrounge up enough gear. Griff is going to camp next week, so he has his sleeping bag and gear.

To make it even more interesting, we are going to go to the same lake we were at last weekend, except we will be on the opposite side of the lake. One side has a very developed campground with power and water and even sewer hookups. The other has a few pit toilets and not much else. No water, no power, but more isolated, and a LOT cheaper.

We will be there for a few days. David is my next to favorite camping partner (Miriam of course, is my all time favorite). He will be roughing it out of his 32 foot Avion and we will be in our Eureka Tetragon 11. Kinda the Mutt and Jeff of the camping world! David is on a diet that is so restricted (by my standards) that we won't share much food, but we will still have a great time.

It is good to go camping any time, better yet with good friends. Last year Griff and David along with Miriam and I spent a weekend in the same area. We had a great time.

I'll be off until Monday.
