Ever meal at camp was amazing. My favorite was rack of lamb cooked on a campfire with homemade mint sauce.

(e:hodown)'s boyfriend Max and I made coals from some pine we collected.The Lamb was cooked perfect. I think (e:hodown) and I ate one rack each.

I made the mint sauce with peppermint tea and sugar. We had salad, heirloom tomatoes, brocolini and garlic smashed potatoes as a side.

After dinner we sat around the fire for hours. I brought organic heavy creme and strawberries for the trip but no beaters. No one thought it was possible but I managed to whip it into whipcreme with two forks and a speghetti ladel. Although it had a faint Smokey flavor from beating it around the campfire, I think that made it even better.

For a completely different kind of camping experience than usual, we met (e:hodown) and her friends (Lisa and Max) in the middle of the state at Betty and Wilbur Davis state park. Unlike, our normal tent camping this cabin had it all - it came wirh dishes, utensils, sheets, hot water -even a refrigerator and dishawasher. Had I realized how it was ahead of time I would have invited (e:Mike). It would have finally been a camping experience he could handle :)

It was a great time.

Outside on the cold cloudy days.

Pop and water now costs $1.50. Doesn't that seem outrageously expensive?

Today was the third day in a row I worked over 12 hours. I am trying to get some stuff out before I have to switch to another project. Luckily, I am enjoying what I am working on. That being said, I am extremely excited about camping with (e:hodown) and her bf this weekend. Its been so long since I have gotten to the other side of the state.
