on the road again

 We are camping! And our site is perhaps the best site we’ve ever had. It’s private with some shade trees, there’s room to walk the dogs around the site, but best of all the camp hosts are Kirsten and Shawn! 



Yes, after a summer of whining and bugging Carm finally agreed to haul the villetta to their place. We are situated on a perfect little glen, near their house, but far away enough that we aren’t in their face. The trip there went well and Carm did an expert job of backing down their laneway and into our site. 


After we got all set up (even the satellite) we gathered at the camper for our traditional cold adult beverage. Eventually we pried ourselves from our seats and went for a long walk down their road. Spike stayed behind with Carm but Adia was thrilled to go somewhere new (read: she dragged me down the road). 


Kirsten provided supper (thanks!). Lots of fun visiting.



It was great to go back to our own place at bedtime, or pre bedtime. Kirsten and Shawn joined us for a while before lights out. 


In the middle of the night the rain started. But is there a more relaxing way to sleep than having the pitter patter of rain on the roof?



Dogs out, coffee at Kirsten’s, coffee at our place (with delectable pastries that Kirsten brought), long walk in the rain (Adia went bezerk running), lunch courtesy of Nissa, and then home to the stick house. So much fun!

Ever drifting down the stream- Lingering in the golden gleam- Life, what is it but a dream?”
