Back online after vacation
We returned home from our camping trip at the state park on Tuesday. We drove up under blue skies and fluffy white clouds. Set up camp, made dinner and sat by the fire and had a s'more for dessert. The next day rain began at 8am and drizzled down until 2pm. It cleared and we were able to enjoy the day. It rained on Saturday but later cleared. More rain on Sunday morning. Monday was a bit crazy, We were under a tornado warning--one set down about 30 miles from where we were camping. Some rain, but no high winds, mostly clear and sunny. We took down our tent gazebo and packed it away before the rain. On Tuesday, we got my mother and dad packed up and off, and then my husband and I headed for home. We had gotten a message that my uncle passed away, so stopped at the funeral home on our way back. I only wish that the message had been delayed so that I could have enjoyed a day or two of vacation without the sadness. My dad became stressed about when to tell my mother that her brother had died and getting home in time to go to the visitation. We unloaded the trailer, so our house was a mess, the camper needed to be cleaned--refrigerator wiped down, sand swept out, and floor scrubbed. I finally finished those chores last night. I did aerobics at hoi jeon mool sool and learned two new hand techniques. Our key member hurt his back at boot camp and the 2nd dan hurt his heel. Now I am back at work, but I have good memories of my vacation--the 5 mile walk across the bridge connecting the upper and lower peninsulas, sitting by the fire and making s'mores and popcorn and visiting with my children, brother and parents. I feel rested and relaxed.
