It has been a while I will admit

I am going camping and hiking this weekend, only one night of camping but it is camping nonetheless. The days can't go by slow enough it seems; it is Tuesday only, and I feel as if it should be Friday. But, back to CAMPING!! I think I am most excited about going on this adventure with the dogs, and greg, of course, but the dogs!! They are going to be so distracted by all the forest noises, etc. I have also never built a fire, so suffice it to say, that should be an interesting experience in itself. If the dogs are bad I shall just confine them to the tent and they will have to peer out through the mesh window, scratching pathetically on the nylon fabric. I only hope that the dogs don't poke a hole in the air mattress, because I dread laying on bumpy cold ground. So if you haven't already discovered this for yourself, I am not exactly going to be "roughing" it, but more like a level above roughing it, because an air mattress will be involved. But, I am not going to count my chickens before they hatch, because the air mattress may deflate and my night's sleep will be an event to look back on. This camp ground doesn't know what's coming. And after we leave it won't know what hit them. So if by some chance you are in Austin and camping, and its night time, and you see two neon circular shapes in the distance and low to the ground, you have, coincidentally, arrived at the exact same camp ground as me, because those would be my dogs. I decided I was going to equip them with night gear: neon necklaces. They are dark coated, and I dont want to lose them. =) Look out wilderness (with electric sockets and running water) here we come!!!
