drip drip drip

G and I just got back from camping in Big Basin. Squelch. We managed to have a pretty good time in spite of - well, to be honest, partially because of - the rain. Would've been nice to wake up to dry boots, but there's something rather cozy about sitting around a campfire underneath a hastily thrown together tarp and listening to our windup radio play the oldies. Of course I'm not going to pretend that I'd turn down a hotel room if someone had offered it to us for the actual sleeping part of the trip...the rain made it extra cold and a bit spooky since it was coming down heavy enough to sound like footsteps now and again. (Odd, the potential sound of human footsteps around my tent freaked me out, but not the thought of coyotees.)

Nonetheless, still a very good trip. It's nice to get away with G every once in a while and renew the love. Not that it was flagging, but I'm on a bit of a high right now and it feels goooooood! Going now to sit in front of the DVD player and snuggle up in front of a different sort of fire than last nights. (Tamer, but just as cozy.)
