Camping season is upon us. Probably my favorite part of summer, after riding the Harley. We don't always go far - we are Blessed to have two GREAT campgrounds within 15 minutes of our home - but it's camping none the less.
I love having nothing more to do than exist. Cook for the troops. Read my book. Sit by the campfire. Go for walks.
There is just nothing better than sitting by the fire after the sun goes down, and the chill hits the air. Moving closer and closer to stay warm, watching the flames, listening to nothing.
But my FAVORITE part of camping is early morning. I'm an early riser. Always the first one up. I get up, dew still on the grass, sun just coming up, and start the fire. It's SO quiet in the mornings. just the lapping of waves, the sounds of the woods. I put the water on the fire for my coffee, and read the book while the sun comes up. I see fish jumping, cranes and ducks flying in. It's one of those God moments, when you realize that God created all of this amazing world we live in.
