Camping Time

In 2007 we were camped at one of our Thousand Trails parks.  I was in the clubhouse working on a jig saw puzzle (as I'm prone to do) and a couple came in, looked out the window and proceeded to marvel at the condition our trailer was in.  We bought the Prowler in 1976 and we'd always kept it in the garage, when we weren't using it, so even though it was 30 odd years old and well used,  it was in like-new condition.  I approached the couple and told them that was our trailer.  We became friends.  We still try to get together once a year or so.

Lately he retired and has taking up wood carving and joined a carving group called Spit and Whittle.  They had a campout this weekend so we joined them.  Had great fun!  Learned about carving, had pot luck dinner met their friends and enjoyed their company.

It was my husband's and my birthdays last month so she painted us this rock....soooo cute, even if it's not the colour of our trailer!  The Prowler, which we no longer have was yellow and the new one is red and white, but I treasure this little rock!

For those who didn't want to try carving they had a couple of crafts for us to do.  One was an embossing to put on the front of a journal or it could be used for making cards or whatever.

The next day a couple of us got together and painted rocks and some of the little carvings our friend had done.

That evening after dinner they had drawings for all sorts of things.  I won this whale!
