Hmm - Wet weather camping?
We were supposed to be going up tomorrow afternoon (lets just take into account that it's not stopped raining for like THREE days, and we camp on a field)...yes, all i can think of is mud and...where are my fricking wellies?.
So anyway, because my boyfriend has been off sick this week with stomach problems, they filled his usual half day Saturday to a full day, which thank goodness means that finishing at 5, we wouldn't get to the camp site until at least 7, and i said NO to pitching a tent at that time - in the cold. So it looks like we're leaving on Sunday.
What is worse is though, is that the field is a NO CAR ZONE in the rain which means lugging a people carrier vehicle FULL of camping gear 1/2 mile up a field, which would take at least 6 trips, none of this is appealing to me.
I LOVE CAMPING, when it's sunny and warm, dry ground, but sludging around in mud, not my idea of fun. Perhaps i can persuade him to come to a nice hotel for the night? Whatever i do, i've got to think fast!
...the downside to all this, is that on Tuesday i bought a ton of new camping gear. New 3 season sleeping bag, kettle, airbed, fleece insert for bag...but it will all keep for next year :)
