Last Camping Trip of the Season
Okay, let’s face it….I’m a real diehard camper. As much as I love the fall, I don’t like when those cold winds begin to blow and signal the end of the camping season. Last weekend was wonderful for camping and the two electric heaters kept the pop-up nice and toasty at Deer Creek State Park. It was sad to clean out and winterize the camper on Sunday, but the job is done. All I can do is wait patiently for a warm spring. Please be early and warm. 
Life is like that, too. We move through phases that resemble seasons and things change. People come and go, we move from place to place, and our kids grow up. Our oldest is a senior and has already been accepted as a biology major for the fall of 2008. The day-to-day things we do often seems to trudge slowly along until we look back and then….Bam….we have leaped years, not days.
As far as having a high school senior goes, I don’t know which of us has more “seniorist”. It seems like the parents are as busy with the scholarship searching and college information overload as the student. I am serious about this…really…since it’s affecting my writing. Who has time to write anymore???
Our senior claims her brain’s fried, but mine was toasted first. But it’s wonderful at the same time. Does that make any sense?? I’m enjoying the teen years of our girls. They are a blast.
I’ll try to write before Thanksgiving.
Bundle up and stay warm….or if you’re in a warmer region, take in some sun for me.
Love ya,
Beth
