Camping


I took a couple of days off last weekend, and went camping with a friend of mine as part of celebrating my 39th birthday. There were supposed to be four of us guys going but two of them backed out at the last moment. I was determined to go, even if I had to go alone, because it had been 4 years since I had gone camping. As soon as we got there, I thought to my self, "why don't I do this more often"? The campsite was absolutely picturesque; nestled among the trees and located on the shorline of a small lake. I really enjoy sitting among the trees, looking at nothing in particular, and just decompressing. It was a wonderful time of chatting around a campfire, reading, hiking, swimming, and enjoying the beauty of the outdoors.

Hey, I just noticed your name on Kent's blogroll. You used to hang out at TGJ, right? I wondered where you went! I enjoyed your posts there and now I can read them here!

Happy birthday! My husband will be 39 in Dec. Maybe I should send him camping... :)

Hi Tina,
Yes, I used to hang out at TGJ. I enjoyed reading many of the people from there, and I keep up with a few of them still.

If your husband likes the out-doors at all, let him go! But being a fellow 39yo, be sure he takes an air matress :-).
