What I see

What I see when I look at this picture...

I see the sun coming up and think, "Wow I'm actually up early". This never happens; I'm really a second shift kind of a gal.

I see my camper and think I love camping and this new camper rocks.

I see the Black Hills of South Dakota and think of the smell of the pines and the azure blue of the sky and *sigh* I think peaceful happy thoughts.

I see our campsite and think of all the fun we had on the first vacation with all of our children and going out of state to boot!

I see myself getting "rounder" and think, "Boy, do I need to do some exercising." I'm not usually in photos, so it really makes me look at myself and how other people see me when I look at one.

I see a little bit of sadness because I know this picture was taken the morning that we packed up and left the Black Hills.

But, I also see a happy Stacey doing just what she wants and loves.

I have so enjoyed every update from your trip!! Makes me really want to go camping! Maybe in a couple of years when the boys are a little older. I think if we went this year it would be a stressful situation leading to overtiredness for every one. Someday... :)
I've never been to Sout Dakota. Looks fabulous!
