Finally! A chance to get out of dodge and step off the grid for a few days. Michael and I road-tripped up the east border of South Dakota this weekend and I've never enjoyed camping more thoroughly. Hiking on bluffs, tenting in campsites, bonfires, dining with the locals, heck, even peeing in the woods. We didn't have a whole lot of time to spend on the road, but next time we will prepare for at least a week of roughing it. We are now professionals at putting up and taking down the tent, we spent maybe ten minutes doing either one.
I'm going to start saying "OK" to things more often; activities that seem maybe out of my comfort zone or a little bit different than I'm used to. The word is a key to a magic door and every time I say it I feel the thrill of possibility. Well, I'll say it to an extent; I won't be jumping out of an airplane and I won't be eating horse balls, but I will go camping in South Dakota with a handsome boyfriend and enjoy every minute of it.
