Okay, just kidding. Tez, Colin, Sasha, Peter(who later left) and I all went camping the last few days. And we came home a day early. Here's the short of it: We went camping. It was awesome.
Now here's the long part:
this trip was amazing and I don't think I have ever felt this liberated as a person before. Not only was this a good trip with good people, but it was good fun. In all honesty, this was the best trip I have ever been on.
We started out by driving down to Multanomah (sp?) Falls, which was fucking gorgeous. While we were there, we hiked to the top of the falls and two things went through my mind... "What can I throw off of here?" and "What would that fall feel like?" I chose to go with the first and I popped open my wallet to the picture of an ex that I finally need to let go. I ripped apart his picture and sent it over the falls with a kiss and well wishings for his future. Seriously, I did. It felt so nice. I tried to do it again with someone else... but I still feel heavy with that, so I need to work on letting that go. Moving on. I hiked, I drank from the river. I found some really cool rocks, that I think fell out of my pocket and back into the river. XD And then went back down the mountian. That night we camped in a place we thought was open. We thought. No. it wasn't, and the showers didn't work. So off we traveled toward the coast.
The coast was beautiful as always. Spent the first day around Seaside, which is always a beautiful place to be, and then we headed down the coast to find a place to sleep. We spent two nights in the same camp ground (Oswald West, the one we didn't get to stay in over the summer. It was a good thing too, no showers.) and got a little burned from being on the beach pretty much all the next day. We were on the beach and I was buried up to my boobages in sand. Wet Sand. I never liked being wet and sandy but for some reason, I could deal with it this time around. It was quite nice actually. It made me sad when one of our party had to leave... I woke up and took him into Seaside so that he could get home and figure things out from there. I've been doing a lot of good deeds lately, I really hope I'm wracking up some good points on the Karma board.
Anyway. We packed up camp later that day, after I fell asleep on the beach for a little while. And we headed even further down the coast. Here's where it starts getting fun. We stopped in a small town and decided to do some shopping because I hadn't tapped into my debit account yet, and the trip was almost over anyway. So we stopped, and shopped. And I have to say that I need to learn how to do that flippy thing with a butterfly knife... because I totally have one. It's so pretty, I want to name it like... Bonita or Gaylord or something. XD It's a rainbow butterfly knife, but anyway. We traveled a little farther to look for a campground, with showers. WITH SHOWERS because WE HADN'T SHOWERED IN THREE DAYS. Sand+Sweat+Sitting=GROSS. I have to say... that shower and the mexican we ate afterward was almost better than sex. ALMOST. (not as of late anyway)
It started raining a little last night, and we thought nothing of it. Little did we know that we would wake up soaked... and we did. And it sucked. But another shower and defrosting my car definatly made up for that. So we came to a group decision that the trip was over, and we were going home. We left the camp ground at about 11... got Tez and Sash back to Evergreen around 5 and then took Colin to see his boyfriend, which he thanked me profusely for. Colin and his boyfriend.
now I am in my house, still warm from a hothothot bath and smooth from lotion on my skin... and I am getting ready for bed. It is time. For sleep at least.
