Another Camping Season Over, Off to the Next Adventure.



We finished up the camping season with our annual Labor Day camping trip. We left on Friday, facing down Earl (the hurricane) with fierce determination.

We were very disappointed.

We don’t normally look forward to camping in hurricane force winds and rain and I lamented all week long about whether to go or to not go. But we had already paid for the whole trip and I also don’t like wasting my hard earned money. With a last minute check of the weather, we decided to head out; just the hubby & I.

We got poured on….and that was it. There was absolutely no wind, just a hard down pour that kept us awake most of the night. We headed back into town the next morning to get the youngest camper and enjoyed the remainder of the weekend in sun, although the temperature had dropped dramatically so we didn’t do any swimming.

During this trip, we decided our little pop-up was too small and that we wanted to upgrade. Well, at least youngest camper & I decided. Hubby goes along with anything we suggest and has agreed to put our pop-up on the market. I’ve started looking for a larger, self-contained trailer that we can leave at the campground for the season.

I think next summer will be a lot more enjoyable. No packing (except for food and clothes), no putting up the camper (leveling, jacking, etc) and then 2-3 days later reversing the process. Yep, just pack some food and clothes and off we go for the weekend.

So now we are into the school season and all of its extra-curricular activities. Looking forward to a little more sanity in my life.

HAHAHAHAHA.

Did I say sanity in my life?

Just a little insane moment I was having there.

Have a blessed day everyone!
