Ode to camping



Camping is where ...






We Smile More Often

















Bonds are Strengthened
















Weird Looks, Sounds and Smells go
Mostly UN-noticed











Games, Games and more Games are played





















We ALL can win at Golf--especially if you have Maya, the wonder-dog to retrieve your shanked shot






















A few tears are expected and even encouraged from time to time.












Crazy Jokes and Funny Stories are brought out and dusted off to new and hopefully appreciative audiences














Competition
simmers
and brews--






hence we learn that,
"the cocky shall be
thrust down to hell"





Forts are built and Magic Kingdoms are created













Sand Castles Arise from the sand














BIRTHDAYS are Celebrated












We love playing in the water--even if it is snow-melt cold











You play so hard and relax so much that you come home more tired than when you left--but at least it's a Happy sort of Satiated-tired.
