I Love Camping

So what kind of vacation can $75 get you these days? Well, if you like camping, a pretty darn fabulous one. It gets you three days of camping and hiking in one of the world's gorgeous places (this time, the Tetons); a few close encounters with moose, deer, a bear, and other assorted wildlife; very tasty food, including s'mores and a dutch oven pineapple upside-down cake that was rather heavenly; opportunities to sit around the campfire until it dies and then gaze at the stars until you start falling asleep in your chair; and time to chat and be crazy with two wonderful friends. Yep, that's $75 well spent.

Now if only I could perfect the self-portrait technique so you could actually see the mountains behind us.

Ah, there they are. Beautiful!
