Camping Trip, Day Four

Sunday, July 26:

We were up by 7 a.m. Apparently, the dam was opened last night, causing the river to rise, leaving a large puddle of water just below our camper, and the air smelling strongly of fish.

After a cold cereal breakfast, we got ready to leave for home, and were on the road by 9 a.m.

Rare is the time that we've gone on a trip when something doesn't go wrong, and this trip was no exception. Not long after we got home, around 2 p.m., Hubbie discovered two things...that his cell phone was missing, and that the rubber seal on the camper slide-out is rotted and broken, which will require taking the unit to a repair shop.

Otherwise, we spent the rest of the afternoon after getting home unloading the camper, washing clothes, and doing other things necessary following a trip.

Phone messages included one from our water aerobics leader, who notified me that the pool will be unavailable to us this week, because of swimming competitions. Wednesday was to be our last day until August 24, anyway, since the college will be closed for summer break. I'm sort of glad not to have to get up early tomorrow, since I need some down time after the trip.

For supper, we had some of the pancakes we'd made last week and put in the freezer, with turkey bacon. We followed that with fresh peaches over ice cream.

Mother went home after that, and Hubbie and I watched a couple of TV shows, before hitting the sack.
