here's the story of my island camping trip.
on my beach trip i saw many things.
ocean city was really really neato. there were so many people, and the water was really pretty, not brown but clearish-green. there was a lot of college people with beer that wanted me to come to their house for the party. "hey susan, come on you'll miss it!" or .."hey, haven't seen you in a while! come on!" .....well i talked to some of them. i said i'd be there after i was done shopping. it was a pretty cool beach though.
i came back with 35 mosquito bites on my right leg. i haven't counted the rest yet. ummmm yes. we got there and started to set up our tent and ...a deer walked up, a weird bambi looking one with spots on its back and i was like oh hey..a deer. neat..and i walked towards it and it kind of just walked away. i was like wow that was a once-in-a-lifetime-experience! i'm SO LUCKY!
not quite.
later that day we were eating, and two more deer walked up. i was like oh hey..i'll feed it! i threw a piece of watermelon on the ground and it ate it. so i held it out and it came to me. from then on, i was feeding the deer by hand the rest of the trip. they also felt invited to lay next to me at the camp fire. and follow me into the tent. and follow me to the bathroom. and follow me to the car. and follow me to the cooler. and then the horses came. i was like HOLY SHITE THERE'S A HORSE RIGHT NEXT TO THE TENT MOM so i walked up to it and amazingly - it didn't run away! it smelled my tortilla chips. i held one out and it almost bit my hand off. then a lady walked up and showed me how to feed it. so from then on i was feeding the deer and the horses for the rest of the trip. they also felt compelled to lay down at our fire. if you don't believe me, i have many pictures. the horses were pretty neat though, i hafta admit. so one night i was walking out of the big building that you take a shower in, and there was this rv parked right outside and a big fat man with tighty-whities on was getting in bed. that was the largest man i've ever seen and i screamed. he heard me, looked up and i just started running back to our camp site. but that's not the worst. the next morning, i cautiously walked past his rv to take another shower. i had a great time, it was the only place that the mosquito's werent'. i was in there a good 30 minutes probably. it was all good clean fun UNTIL...
i put my towel around me and opened the curtain, and there, directly in front of me, only 2 feet away, was a completely naked 60 year old woman..BENDING OVER. that was the WORST thing i have ever seen. i felt like i was in a natzhi how the HELL do you spell that camp. how cold you not have the decency to remain in the shower to dress. and WHY would you bend over like that right in front of someone, blocking the ONLY way past. so i just waited it out in the shower..another 10 minutes. i think that was the worst of my trip.
oh yeah, in the middle of the night the last night we were there, the horses came and knocked everything over and ate part of the big mosquito tent. there was holes in it. we had to yell at them to make them go away. well, mom did, i didn't.
one night katie told me to go stick my head in the ocean bc i had to move her air mattress over. it was in the way...she screamed for me to go stick my head in the ocean. so i got out of the tent and walked around on the beach for a while. then went back to bed. i think that's it...if i remember anything i'll leave a second post.
