Since forever...

For the first time in a very very long time, we are going camping. Just camping. We have done several float trips the past couple of years in which we get on canoes and go down the river and camp along the river. But that is different. There is an agenda. You have to make it to the end of the river by a certain time to be picked up by the outfitters. It is a lot of fun, but I always end up very tired at the end of the weekend.

Camping, you don't have that. You just get there and then relax. You want to go for a swim, you go swim. Want to hike, go find a trail. Want to sit around and read a book or watch a fire and drink beer, you can do that as well. Don't want to take a shower, you don't have to take a shower.

So, come Friday, we are heading to a camp ground with some friends to relax and get back to nature.
