Roughing it

I went camping this weekend, tent camp training for Girl Scouts.

It was a lot of fun. We hiked, did crafts, compass games, other station games, had a campfire, retired a United States flag, cooked on grills, dutch ovens, box ovens, and the campire, made a box oven, covered knife safety.

I learned an awful lot.

I loved to camp as a kid, as a Girl Scout. My mother didn't like to but did because she was helping out the troop. Her idea of roughing it was a hotel without a pool. Yep, she loved me to go camping with me.

My husband doesn't care for camping so it's been a long time since I've been.

My girls sort of like it but I'm not sure it's in either one's blood. I know people who go camping a lot, some most every weekend during the summer. Don't know that will ever be me.

It's a fun place to visit but I was so glad to get home last night and sleep in my own bed.

What's your idea of roughing it?
