I just ordered my Acme "shark in AC bubble" kit.

Guaranteed to work.

The camping trip was wonderful this weekend. The psuedo son-in-law pulled and set up the pop-up just fine. But, he sure has an attitude. We skirmished a bit with his responsibilities at the camp site. He informed my daughter and I that he was going fishing and that we would cook supper. I told them that I cooked breakfast and helped with the lunch, along with washing dishes and tidying up the camper and that I was not in charge of the evening meal. He pouted but did not go fishing. So they both cooked supper over a wood fire while I read my book. LOL Then today, when we were about to break camp, my daughter took the grandkids for a final swim and left SIL and me to do so. Ha, a big mistake. He did not understand the sequence of order in breaking camp. Westy, I know you know of what I speak. He just wanted to throw things in his pick-up and go. So, he walked down to the beach and told my daughter that I was just getting in his way. She came up and helped me organize for decampment, but took up for him.

I have decided to encourage them to go on a trip without me. It should be interesting to see how they fare. LOL

The grandkids had a wonderful time in the campground and on the lake beach. They think the pop-up is their playhouse, really, and love to go in it all the time. They met some kids in the campground who taught them to catch terripens and tadpoles.

The kids were asking for ghost stories and I couldn't remember any except the "headless horseman", which I told them. And then, I made up my own ghost story about a "ghost ship" on the lake that glided through late at night. Of course, I embellished the details of the ghosts onboard. LOL Well, maybe it was overkill because they begged me to tell them it was not true. LOL
