Home again.

I'm still trying to tell myself that it's OK to travel for long periods of time (this one was "only" 4 hours). I know if Joe and Care see this, they're gonna think I'm crazy. Ah well. I've had this problem of traveling--I get claustrophobic. Anyway, on to our trip...

We arrived Pedernales Falls round 9pm . There were so many things we had to get before we left. I wasn't even thinking about all the stuff we needed at Walmart. Carl went shopping for me-my wonderful man. I never ever would have thought about oil for cooking, foil, tin pans to put things in over the camp stove or fire, the list goes on. He got just about everything we needed. We got there, set up our tent that fits 4 and you can stand in it (that's something I wanted esp having a baby-I can imagine it getting alil frustrating in a too tiny tent). Went to bed.

Carl made breakfast every morning. I know, I felt like I should have, but I had to watch Claire. And we know that Carl would rather do the cooking anyway. ;) We had such wonderful DELCIOUS meals!! However, we were ready for some of our "home food" that includes GREEEEENS!! On Wednesday night we had hamburgers. Those were a hit with me. Hehe :D Afterwards we had s'mores without graham crackers. :) Still good.

We fished, did alitttle hiking, I waded through the water and Carl swam. On Wednesday afternoon, it was pretty hot and I knew Claire needed to have her nap. We couldn't stay in the tent coz it was way too hot. So we got in the truck and drove to the swimming area. By that time, she was asleep...just what we were hoping for!

We had sooo much fun! Glad we're home, though. There's a time for everything. I have this thing where I get emotional when departing somewhere or when people are departing me. I got that thingy when we left the camp site.

On our way home, we visited another camping place called Buescher Park. I think that's where I want to go next time!! Carl fished there and caught one! A wide mouth bass. Is that what it's called? I'm excited about getting into camping!!
