Back home and on the laptop... :)

August 4, 2009 (wow, already...)

Camping was great... we had so much fun, and though Candan didn't catch any fish, he still had fun with his new rod and reel that lights up when you crank the handle. His mommy threaded his first hook on his line. I feel so proud :)

Shannon and I kayaked out far away from the rest of the world to a place where there weren't any footprints on the beach except for ours. (not even bear footprints, a good thing, I think...)

and I have so much to write about that adventure. Shannon asked while we were paddling how many blogs I was writing in my head, because I was being really quiet. She knows me, eh? "About five!" I answered. It's true :)

I can't write out any of them however, today, because I have Speech #5 to give tomorrow at Toastmasters, and well, I was too busy camping to write and practice it. So, that's what today is all about in between caring for my little barfy girl. Poor thing, missed all the s'mores while she was sleeping with a fever.

I am doing my speech on the blog I wrote back in April... Indiana Jen and the Raiders of the Lost Garden, with a few modifications, and a different conclusion :) I'll post it as soon as I am done.
