The sunlight sparkles on the water, speckles the path, and dances with the trees. I sit on a log bench and meditate on the memory verse for my Bible study:

Camping 101
By hgoodman - Posted on October 29th, 2007
What I learned from camping:
- It's best to spoil yourself when camping: steak and salmon for dinners and the like. It helps if you pack a Master Chef with you for just such an occasion. This is why I take my husband with me.
- Coffee tastes better percolated outside.
- Full moons are just as bright as the dawn.
- Also bring with you a pyro. They make the best campfires (um, my husband again).

Camping Story #2—Another Pot Story
So the next morning a representative from Xena’s site comes over to ours.
“Hey, you guys got anything to boil eggs in?” he asks.
Chris jumps up. “Sure. Will a coffee pot work?”
What? My coffee pot? The one I just bought two days before? My first actual camping coffee pot? And let me reiterate—COFFEE pot! Coffee, people. Do you know how much I treasure this? But I smile.
“Uh, you guys smoke?”
We shake our heads no.

about me
It is important that you know that my middle name is Anne (spelled with an "e"). It is my mother's middle name and my grandmother's middle name. It is the name of my favorite character, Anne of Green Gables. I want to be Anne of Green Gables, red hair and all. When not blogging, I love twirling and dancing to my favorite music on our smooth concrete floor.
