Gone Campin'

The trailer is packed, the inflatable canoe is ready and the party awaits.

We're off for our first adventure in "dry camping"...that is foregoing the normal water and electrical hookups. This is a quick trip, as we have to be home tomorrow night for a 4th of July party. We are going up to Bass Lake, which is less thank an hour from our front door but feels like half a world away. I figured this would be a good experiment for my poor husband, who's not that psyched about roughing it.

Since we'll be gone for less than 24 hours, I'm figuring we'll all survive. I can't wait to sit around the campfire listening to my men playing their instruments (we have packed the guitar, mandolin and recorder) and enjoying the full moon.

Who has not found the heaven below
Will fail of it above.
God's residence is next to mine,
His furniture is love.
Emily Dickinson
