    Seafood for dinner, yum! Lost my clam chowder to my daughter. She's become such a seafood lover, just like dad.

    Think it's funny that daughter is all about her daddy...until it comes to food...then it's every man or girl for him/herself... Esp. seafood...

    Breakfast at the hotel, heading downtown. The freeways seem so small here. Most are 4 lanes plus 2 hov lanes.

    Drove in rush hour traffic yesterday, if you can call it that. Now we're stuck in traffic for the 1st time, due to an accident ahead.

    @shika Even for those of us that love camping the "I feel dirty" feeling can be annoying after a day but it passes.

    About to watch the fireworks in N Idaho. Somehow feels like the edge of the world still to me.

    You just want to feel dirty

    1 month, 3 weeks ago by edythemighty.

  • FyreFiend

    @edythemighty Err no. Nothing on earth feels as good as that first shower when you get back from a week in the woods. It's worth being a little scuzzy for a few days to be able to get away from the world though. God, I need to go camping again and soon.

    I feel dirty, oh so dirty. I feel dirty, and shitty, I smell pine!

    I dont do camping, needing a shower is one of the many reasons

    I can get dirty with the best of them, but if there's a shower to be had, I'll beat you to it :P

    For the record I don't leave the house without a shower normally but camping is different.
