Ah... Spring. Sort of.

I got to go camping this weekend. I say that as though it were some lucky thing, but actually, I just got my butt in gear and went and did it because I wanted to. I found a friend, grabbed my camp stove and hiked a ways up the canyon. There was still snow on the ground but as long as I wore the proper clothes it was comfortable and just nice to be out side. I got to sleep in my tent that I just LOVE. I think that the reason I like it so much is because it's yellow. One of my favorite things of camping is waking up with the sun rise. In my yellow tent the sun coming through is magnified and intensified and I feel like I'm waking up in a super bright, lovely, heavenly place full of light and hope and dreams and the chance for a wonderful adventure. Then I can snuggle back into my sleeping bag and block it all out. I can hardly wait to go camping again!
