looking at those beautiful photos makes me want to travel. i haven’t done any of that in a very long time. not a long trip to someplace beautiful, anyway. i can’t even recall the last time i did that.
not that camping isn’t a sort of travelling. the nice thing about camping is that even if you don’t go very far, it can feel like you’re far away, because you’re out there surrounded by nature.
unless you have to sleep on rocks.
even that wasn’t so bad, really, once the air mattress was inflated.
it would have been truly tragic if it had had a hole in it. the first air mattress we had for our first camping trip did have a hole, and by morning we were sleeping on the very hard earth. that was MUCH worse than sleeping on rocks with an air mattress.
it wouldn’t have been so great if the air mattress inflator had been out of battery power, either, but luckily it wasn’t.
everything is good. everything is good. the surliness is merely a product of over-tiredness.
isn’t it?
ok then, the last time tonight finally,
grace
