10 Things I learned While Camping

[Geekster]

I, with my husband have been on the road & camping for the last month. We got home Sunday night, finally. It was fun but it was an adventure. Problems had to be addressed ''right now" instead of a few days. Here is my "10" list but no way complete. Glad I'm home b/c I was getting homesick. And there were no close towers in last park we camped in. When we got on with phones it was for a very few short min's. Dang--Ohio State parks need to ''update" to the current century! Just a short funny list....

The List:

10. Burnt hot dogs still taste like burnt hot dogs no matter what condiments you put on them.
9. A P-T-A bath (uuhhhh--wimmen part, t*ts & a$$) is not the same as a full spray, constant on, full force shower @ home.
8. If the person you are camping with burps, farts, or scratch their selves ONE MORE TIME, you are going to hurt them.
7. Air mattress’ can get leaks & you wake up on the hard, cold ground where the bugs are (refer to #6)
6. Bug bites HURT & ITCH! Especially spider & deer fly bites on the same wrist and hand a few hours apart.
5. The dog gets dirtier faster & lets you know that they are dirty by scratching and licking their selves all the time. (Glad I didn’t have to add the "licking" to #8)
4. Charcoal is hard to get lit and burning when wet. (I volunteered to raid an army post to “borrow” a flame thrower) I was getting hungry & desperate.
3. Diarrhea & a full waste tank is NOT FUN! (Plz refer to #2)
2. Just b/c a lot of semi’s are parked around a diner/truck stop does not guarantee good, clean healthy food. They eat there b/c of easy in/out—off/on access. (Plz refer to #3)
1. Do Not, under any circumstance smart off to the person holding the plastic bag of warm fresh dog poop.

Anybody else have any fun "top 10 lists" or however short or long you want. Dang, Paco, I know you have to have one if not several!!

Missed my EQ friends!

that's some posh camping.
last time I went "camping" I had a sleeping bag, a shelter half, a shovel and a rifle.
one does not "bathe" in a combat environment.
Dry shaving is not fun.
MREs taste better than you think, and cook by adding water.
avoid large spiders.
and try not to set the grass on fire while defending the LP/OP


if you need fire ask the engineers, they like burning things.
I have AT next week so I'll let you know if I come up with anything new...

Yeah! I know he did. I told him he "sucked" in the HomeScreen Thread & in an email. If I had his address I would get a marching band to stomp all over his front lawn holding banners "aaand you suck". <jk> (UH? That would be kind of useless if he lived in an apt. building, huh?)
Even whined (ahem-told) my husband "that little shit got a Q9c before I did". I don't know what rb looks like, or what his body type is or if he is some big weight lifter that could break rocks with his fist, at that moment he was "a little shit"! Not-jealous! I-am-not-jealous!!
*Scott got a Q9C too? He's on my list of "ppl to harrass", too* <jk>
