camping and other adventures....

A few friends and I went camping the other weekend. What was supposed to be a day of canoeing in the sun turned into a day of fog at the beach. Our first attempt in Guernville was unsuccessful, mainly because they wouldn't allow campfires. Peace out!

The beach. Foggy, wet, kind of cold. Somehow my friends found a spot secluded from families and children. We woke up in the middle of the night with what we thought were bandit raccoons getting into our stuff. It serves us right we left everything out to get damp and scavenged about. After peeking out though we discovered it was a skunk. Im not sure which one's worse. Point being our popcorn - devoured. All our eggs which were in a cooler - devoured. Homemade muffins - gone. Ugh.

In other adventures I got a job! WOOOOHHOOOO!!!!! - more news about that later.

Also in more adventures. I carved 2 pumpkins in 2 days. This is huge considering I don't think I've actually carved a pumpkin since my senior year of HS. We did good. The first one was a pretty good (accidental) representation of Max's boat from Where the Wild Things Are. And the second was a sick pirate. It was the one where we had to "shade" the pumpkin, not carve all of it out. We used a stencil. It was fun.

Life is good.

I burnt my shoe/slipper on the fire. I didn't know it was burning. It melted. And girls like lighter fluid too.
