We are going on our very first tent camping trip since our 10yo was a baby! Since then, we have used our trailer, or stayed in Housekeeping in Yosemite, which has a cabin sort of thing, beds and electricity. And showers. We are going up into the Sequoia National Forest, to a campsite that has outhouses and no showers. For three days. I used to be able to camp for several days without showering, but the last couple of years, I just needed my daily shower to wake up and feel normal. But I'll manage. As long as I don't have to touch any fish. E is getting a fishing license today. Hopefully, we (they) will actually catch something. The boys want to even clean them and cook them for dinner. Yikes! I remember as a kid, going to our friends' cabin "in the mountains" not too far from where we will be, an hour maybe?? The boys caught some fish and we were walking back to camp. They asked if I wanted to carry the fish, and for some crazy reason, I said ok. They handed it to me, mouth wide open, and I had to hold it from the mouth. Well, that was just too much for this girly girl. I dropped the fish right in the dirt! They were not too happy with me. That was the last time I ever touched a fish like that. We shall see what happens this weekend.
When we get back, I will post PICTURES!!! We bought a new camera to replace the lost one. I have a handy camera case with a strap, so I can always be wearing it.
