Back to civilization and it's bittersweet indeed. Camping in Pinecrest is the most sacred of Whitcomb family traditions, next to Disneyland that is. Just me, Mr. J-Diddy, and Erica this time around. I won't have enough time this typing session to go into detail about the fun had by all, but here's commentary on the return portion of the vacation.
The Bitter: No more sitting in front of the fire with a poking stick in hand, just relaxing with the fam. No more enjoying the scenic view of the lake at sunset without a care in the world. Coming back to the obligations of daily life, and all that entails. Pretty much no more escape from "regular" life.
The Sweet: SHOWERS!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOODNESS, SHOWERS!!!!!!!!!! I've never loved showering so much as I did today when I bathed and felt warm water for the first time in four days. The kitties, you end up missing them no matter what. Outlets to charge my phone in, there's an epic saga in there about how I managed to go camping with only one bar of battery life to start with. No more having to listen to obnoxious and childish neighbors, the adults were worse than their kids.
There's more, but I'm too distracted by the pizza in front of me and the current episode of Whale Wars on t.v. to think. Okay, will come back to this subject area when I've been properly refueled and rested.
LOL! of course it was the phone (no charging capability) & the SHOWERS that ranked highest on your short list of highlights. I can hardly wait for the longer version - soon, I hope? Enjoy that PIZZA & the TV - LOL! I love you, dear granddaughter MINE!! xxGma <3 xxooxx
