1st Time Tent Camping

We went to the Renessaince Festival this weekend and I got to see Bellydancing!! Which probably excites me more than it should, forgot to take pictures though b/c I was being attacked by bees and drinking yummy margaritas.

Then it was off to the New River for my first time . . . tent camping. I helped with the tent pitching ;) and since our little bundles of fire wood that costed a bundle didn't last long enough I also helped gather wood but it was slim pickin's. It was FREEZING, we should have taken a heater! And best of all, the air mattress I borrowed from the rents must have sprung a leak b/c we were on the walnut cover ground by about 5 AM.

Sat in the car with the heat on for a bit, then my sexy man worked up the nerve to go refill the mattress and we slept a few more hours with tons more clothes on.We were going to go canoeing (aka a float trip, which requires liquor fyi) but it was just wayyy too cold!!! So today we hiked all over Stone Mountain, I'm exhausted but inspite of it all, I had a BLAST and can't wait to do it again, 'cept this time we will have a good air mattress and a heater and sleeping bags.

PS- Incase you didn't realize: Enduring all that with a smile on my face (most of the time) means I'm hardcore.








Anyone care to share their camping experiences?
