Father's Day

My dh and dd went camping with friends over Father’s Day weekend. I stayed home to let them have some special time together and also not to overcomplicate their impromptu plans. I would have fussed for a couple hours over what to pack. Dh and dd quickly chucked some things into the hatchback and disappeared in a cloud of dust. I admit I also stayed home because I think it is insanity to camp out in 105 degree weather. But they camped in the shade by a spring fed creek and stayed fairly comfortable all weekend long. LBL had scads of activities to choose from that weekend, but for the most part they just enjoyed fishing, wading, canoeing and hanging out with friends. My husband tells me that there were five girls splashing around with our daughter. They stayed up all night Friday night and laughed under the stars. That day the girls were groggy but still managed to all go up to the Nature Center to learn about the animals and do nature crafts. If there is a better way for a kid and dad to spend Father’s Day, I cannot imagine what it could be. I’m hoping we all get to camp on August 11th and 12th. There will be a meteor shower that night and I don’t want to miss it.
On the other hand, I spent most of my weekend with girlfriends. We visited the Farmer’s Market, Etc. Coffeehouse and then spent the day in the pool. We had Kirchoff’s focaccia and blueberries for breakfast, a meal I highly recommend. That night one of my friends got a birthday tattoo and a couple of our guy friends joined us for pizza and a movie. I love living in western KY. It is a low key, relaxed place to live and I am a low key, relaxed kinda gal.
