Off Into the Wild Blue Yonder

We leave in the morning for a wonderful week in Eastern Oregon under (hopefully) beautiful blue skies. It is a Girl Scout camping trip with our little troop, I know the girls will have tons of fun...swimming, hiking, basketball, mini golf, volleyball, canoing, kayaking, shopping, museums, ice cream, roasting s'mores and hot dogs, and even more exciting...hot showers!

So now we just play rearrange the Suburban another time or two to squeeze everything in...girls are not light packers! You've just gotta do your nails in the woods, would it be a camping trip without nail polish?

Ken's idea of a camping trip is to bring as little stuff as possible and see if you can make it...it's tactical, it's MacGyver-ish. My idea of seeing if you can make it is to get in the car and drive to the closest discount store and see if you can afford all the stuff you forgot. Ken is staying home...Girls Only this time so we have to take everything but the kitchen sink!

We didn't hear from Aspen's doctor today, so maybe tomorrow...I don't know if there is phone service there or not but I am sure a message will be waiting when I come home otherwise. Once again God has provided an excellent distraction while we wait!!
