A camping we will go

As a family we are preparing to go camping this coming week. As you can imagine the children are bursting with anticipation. Every morning too early they run into my room (if they are not all ready sleeping there) and YELL Mommy its time to go! Its camping day! Well there excitement is wonderful and encouraging but the disappointment I must relay to them is harsh words to a 3 and 4 year old. No not today. However the day is soon approaching. There excitement will soon be reality unless....

Rain.

We also bought a new tent this year. It came just in time. Last year we had an enormous tent SO big we were losing things in it. We scaled down but didn't cut corners. We but it up in our yard to make sure no leaks, no rips, no faults. It seams to be doing great. Even with the on going daytime thunderstorms it is dry!!!

The forecast is hopeful. This storm is supposed to pass today and we should have wonderful weather. But forecast change. This Monday we have chose to go to a near by park. It looks and sounds great but I have never been there yet. It is within 45 minutes of our house. How wonderful! Not only in Pennsylvania are we so blessed to have all sorts of environments but at $4 a gallon you do not have to travel far to see them. Plus if the weather does not hold out we can soon return to the comforts of home.

So we shall wait pack and plan as we will soon be off and finally away for a few days!

I guess we all have different ways of waiting.
