[This bad boy has had three generations of Walkers sleep in it! (Maybe four one day?!)]
Since D went down a day and a half before me, he set up the entire campsite by himself. This is some hardcore stuff too. That cabinet above keeps all of your cooking necessities nearby but stored away (close for you, safe from animals).
French press coffee and chocolate and peanut butter chip pancakes are an amazing way to start your day (after already sleeping in). Seriously camping food might be the best... After breakfast and being incredibly sore/tight from my injury, I wanted to start my day off with some outdoor yoga. My yoga guru, Ashley, sent me some links, and I had one of the best yoga workouts ever.
This view is what I'm talking about. I laid out the mat under the trees and the sunlight. I plugged in my headphones (mainly to drown out the loud college kids across the way) and turned on the Yogini Pandora station. It was amazing, simply amazing.
Cloud Atlas was a doozy to get through (so long), but in my opinion a day is no better spent than in front of the fire with a book. We spent the entire day reading and relaxing.
Grilled pizza, chocolate popcorn, hot chocolate, and s'mores. Perfect end to a little camping getaway.
Not so perfect? A disabled girl trying to pee in the woods (who's wasting time driving and crutching up to the bath house) with a family next door. Props to D for rigging a tarp and getting me hooked up. While alcoholic beverages are prohibited in the parks, do you think it stopped D and I? So imagine our surprise when the park ranger knocked on our camper door Sunday morning. Oh shit. Things got real (which means the last four of our beers had to be poured out). Oh the memories...
While I wish there was some green on that plate, sorry. I'm not sorry. Camping has always been a time that I can indulge in foods and snacks that I never eat (I'm looking at you Garden Salsa SunChips). Venison burgers (since venison is flexitarian for me), baked beans, and grilled corn is the perfect way to start a camping trip.
