Camping, a not-so-cheap alternative
The full write-up of our trip to Vernal and my race at Dinoland is coming, but I’ve had my hands full since our return. I found out on Wednesday I’ve got a nice case of bronchitis and sinusitis — allergies gone awry from spending three nights sleeping in a puddle. Jordan found out today that he has Giardia from drinking the campsite’s water. Other “expenses” from the camping trip include: Gulliver ripping a gaping hole in the tent (that is not our’s — luckily Jordan’s Mom is not only very understanding and nice, but she also knows how to fix it!) and my iPhone drowning in the puddle that formed in our tent the first night b/c I didn’t bother to really attach the rainfly as I had been told “it never rains here!!”.
Despite all of the above and our weeklong recovery, it was actually a really fun trip and we’re looking forward to going back for the full week next year. And I know the New Jersey in me is really coming out in this post, but despite what it sounds like, I really do like camping and I’m not a total wimp. Honest!
