Pros and Cons

I look forward to giving up the daily routines (you know, showers and such) for a long camping trip like this one. It helps me identify my priorities and see what I really need in my life. It is also an opportunity to live a different lifestyle for a while. However, there are pros and cons.....

Things I am looking forward to on the trip:
Sleeping on the ground. Hanging out with Pat. Rice Krispy treats for dessert. Sunrises. Sunsets. Taking 2,000 pictures. Sleeping on the ground. Watching flowers bloom. Simplicity. Broadened awareness. Being self-contained and self-sufficient. Sleeping on the ground.

Things I will miss about home:
Jill. Mike. Dixie. Marbles. Butter. Snooze on the alarm clock. Ivy. Fractal. Animated movies. Driving a car. Popcorn. Dixie. Flip flops. Hearings on the Supreme Court Justice nominee. Erica's birthday. Hulu. Baking. Dixie.

  2. Those things will all miss you too. You will find new things to love, such as brakes.
