Yes, there was a torrential rain and hail storm. The temperature dropped. The weekend plan was for camping – and by golly – camp we did!
Instead of packing up and hauling the kitchen sink to a remote location, the six-person tent was set up in the garage and the RV backed up next to it in order to replicate the experience of being “away from home.” It was perfect. Bathrooms inside, dinner from the local Asian restaurant, outdoor gas fire pit, and a playground complete with a DVD player and some old Disney movies. My husband and son rode around the driveway on their motorcycles creating awe-moments for the granddaughters. The four-year old joined in on her training wheels and everyone was satisfied that we had camped quite properly.
Who knows? It could be our new routine since camping in our fair state now requires ticketed times and lottery winnings. And the price is right.
