camping

          Every year my grandpa, my dad and my cousins all go on this annual camping trip. last weekend was it. Me and my dad got our 500 pounds of gear together, smashed it all into the car, and drove an hour to the woods. We then drove another twenty minutes through the woods on a little dirt path that was covered in mud. We arrived at the site, a little clearing of trees with our tents already set up.

          After throwing everything into the tent we then started building a fire. It wasn't that hard, because my grandpa dumped about a gallon of lighter fluid onto a pile of wood and threw a match into it. It looked like somebody had just thrown a grenade at my feet.After that was done, my grandpa gave us the rundown of the area, telling us where and where not to go. It turns out that the only thing we forgot to bring was bug spray. By the time we got out of there I was definitely anemic. even though it is a hassle and we got eaten alive, I look forward to the trip next year.
