start over

I started a post this morning going on about how people in our country these days are crucified over sharing opinions that are not of the current majority's liking. But, we all know that this trend ebbs and flows with every new adminstration and it comes and goes with whatever new news pundit is getting the latest high ratings, so it doesn't really matter does it?
Ahh...apathy...setting in after all these months. This must be what those people feel like when they just stop caring- total underwater weightlessness....sinking, sinking. Blissfully unaware of any problems....
Anyhoo. Had a great time at Ft. De Soto among the mangroves and Australian pines that were blowing around like crazy. My parents are so much fun to be around when they aren't trying to visit every one else in Clearwater and they can just hang with their own little clan for a while and be the normal, fun-loving folks we know they really are. We were there all day until around 8:30 after dinner (they don't allow ground fires there so no traditional family fire toddies last night for most of us) then we took our little bundle of energy home to sleep. However, as they move onto the Keys, Phillip and I decided to start tent camping again next weekend.I have missed doing that the past two years and we've been waiting for a good nice weather weekend. Luckily, we have accumulated alot of camping gear and have tons of experience growing up wit parents who took us camping and registering during our wedding for camping gear that we still have and have used all over the Southeast. (Haven't made it camping north of Kentucky yet or West of AL). During college I went on a few trips up to NC and SC camping along the way and had a blast, and my folks took us out west for a two week rv camp trip through 12 states. It was Griswald heaven.
Ready to get out of the house for a while and see what's going on out there. I'm staying out of the sun today and trying to take care of biz here but unmotivated and my child is going mmamamamamama over and over again.
have fun tator tots...life is pleasurable these days.
