Arrived at the campsite, a little later then we were planning on arriving – mostly due to traffic but also because we meet up with a few friends so that delayed getting to the camp site.
When we did arrive, there was a couple other tents set up already one was just to be there for that night, a couple others set up for a few days already and now us and our plans of being on site until at least Friday, depending on how things go.
Another day of heat, its so blasted hot today that trying to stay cool has been its own problem – I know the city has opened cooling station but that doesn’t help everyone. I’m worried about my dad in this weather for all he’s said that he enjoys it it doesn’t appear to agree with him anymore- thus I’ve been turning on the fan in the TV room in front of his chair and he’s actually been leaving it instead of turning it off, he’s also actually been having the AC on his room instead letting it get to sweltering which is nice to see him doing, yes I know it costs more on the electricity bill but having him at his age getting heat stroke or close isn’t a good thing either!
Post more as time does allow for it, take care everyone!
Well it happens, one sleeps though their double alarm because one is just that tired.
But we are keeping to day as we are able to do so, doing things around the house and using the net at a limited degree plus starting to build a list of what we need for our campaign trip next week.
I hope everyone is having a good and blessed day, take care!
Well it has been a LONG time since I have gone camping, I know Norman is looking forwards to going and being out in nature. We going to be heading out to the Torrance Barrens Dark-Sky Preserve. Thus we unpacked the tent today, actually got it out of the box and put it up completely in part to air it out and in part to make sure there was no holes in it or other possible breaks or problems that would affect our ability to camp or stay/sleep in it.
After putting the tent up, which took a little longer than expected. Took a little longer because we couldn’t find the instruction and couldn’t even find anyone on YouTube in regards to the tent itself, ya of the 2k of tent videos from the company the tend is from there is 0 videos that I was able to find in regards to our particular style.
Our tent is an Ozark Trail – Athabasca Falls – 16ft x 9ft 2 Room Family Dome Tent according to the bag it came in, yet a YouTube search brings up 100% nothing can find Cabin Tents that meet the size and are by Ozark Trail, but nothing that comes under the heading of an Athabasca Falls tent under their brand = Fail!
Here is a post card that was posted about Buddy the first Seeing Eye Dog in North America and his hander Morris Frank, it is a really touching story and well work looking up and even renting the movie that was dun about their life and journey.
