Camping Trip, Day One

Wednesday, June 1: Today is Granddaughter's birthday. Happy Birthday, Granddaughter!

We were up around 7 a.m., and spent a couple of hours after breakfast finishing packing the camper for a trip to a campground about two hours south.

We left town around 9:30. This trip, we took our three cats, but left Mother's cat at home, because she fights tooth and claw when Hubbie attempts to cage her. Mother decided that she would be happier at home, where she was comfortably provided for with several dishes of food, water, and plenty of litter pans. Mother also left on lights and the TV.

We arrived at the campground around noon. After we set up camp and had lunch, Hubbie and I went to the WDCS for a few items, and then to a hobby store, where I took advantage of a 50% off sale to buy three punches, using grant money from Extension Homemakers. The punches will be used to make greeting cards for Caring Hands Hospice. I also picked up card stock and adhesives for scrapbooking.

Back at camp, Mother said that Daughter had come by right after we left (we probably passed her on the road), and stayed until just before we came back. Daughter packed a pimento cheese sandwich and homemade cookies to take to work for her 8 p.m. supper break. Daughter loves Mother's homemade pimento cheese, as well as the cookies she bakes.

After a supper of leftover lasagna, with cottage cheese and garden salad, we played a couple of games of Skipbo, before calling it a night.
