Damn, I'm sore.

Got back a bit ago from the impromptu camping trip with s4. Apparently the memory of the largely uphill, mile-long hike to the Afton campground was fuzzy and a little easier when my dear boy was in high school. No matter, we're tough, and our way-out site was very nice and secluded, allowing me to do things like whup around fire without getting noticed or in trouble. (It'd still probably be best if we didn't tell my mom, though.) This is my second attempt with real, live fire, and the first in total darkness or with photographic evidence. s4 took some damn fine















Anyone else excited for Burning Man?
heeheehee...

We purchased this neato eucalyptus lotion repellant. it worked really well, to avoid the sun-down mosquitoes, but during the hike it sweated right off, and the bugs found the places it was not. We also ended up working it into our hair. and clothes and stuff.

So yeah, the bugs were bad at sunset. Bad in the swampy woodsy part of the park. Persistent at finding ways through our defenses. But not a one in the tent overnight, and none in the morning.
