camping out for real

well over labor day weekend dominic and i decided to go camping...we didn't have to travel very far to find a very secluded place...we camped out in lincoln, the town next to us, in a blackberry patch in the middle of a pasture...we were surround by mountains...it was so amazingly beautiful...i know the idea of camping might sound really strange after contracting lyme's disease but i can't stop living so i just made sure i did a lot of tick checks on myself...haaaaa
we drove the car to the bottom of the trail that led up to the campsite...it was about a half mile or so hike up to where we had decided to camp...so it took a couple of trips to get all of our stuff up there but it was a good workout...on friday we walked down to a friend's place for some drinks...after awhile we walked back up, made a fire and cooked dinner...it got very cold that night...down into the 40's...but the next day was beautiful...we decided to hike up mt. abe...
this was a great climb with some tricky parts but we had a good time...the view from the top was amazing!!!
i love this place...so amazing and beautiful...we were exhausted after the hike that we made a ton of food had some drinks and went to bed...
we got up monday, packed up came home and vegged out on the couch all day...we were spent...it was so fun to be able to spend some good quality time together before we both get busy with work...
