My Labor Day Weekend: A Redux
- Spent two days camping with BDC's family 'cause the boy was actually eager & excited for them to meet me and vice versa. (Quite possibly the first time that's ever been the case, actually and sadly.)
- Played a crazy canoe game while canoeing.
- Got a blister from my shoddy canoeing.
- Finally played the infamous LCR.
- Got to see the extremely vibrant Milky Way and a couple shooting stars in a crystal clear PA sky in the autumn cold with a boy's arms wrapped around me.
- Ate camper pies. Sort of.
- Had a lengthy philosophical discussion late at night under the stars until the campfire burnt down all the way and we gave in to our tiredness.
- Drank beer in a canoe.
- Drank beer around the campfire.
- Drank beer in the middle of the day.
- Drank a helluva lot of beer.
- Played with a bunch of children.
- Went 3 days without showering.
- Built up nearly three days' worth of campfire stink.
- Watched two guys spend an hour (successfully) making torches out of forest sticks, underpants, and lard.
- Laughed the hardest I have in a good long time.
- Figured out where BDC gets his ability to fall asleep anywhere (including on top of me).
- Got hazed in the form of a Jungle Breakfast hunt.
- Won money gambling in Tripoley.
- Helped cook vegan beer waffles over a campfire.
- Slept outside on the cabin porch with the world's highest air mattress and a boy who stole all the covers and smushed me into the wall but kept me warm with his own body heat and woke me up with redbearded grins and kisses.
- Listened to a lot of chili-induced farts.
