Ode to Aunt Trudy

I've got to sit down and visit the "Blog" for a minute. I'm off to camp in the State Forest with my Girl Scout Troop and I was treated to a wonderful memory this morning. The weather is supposed to be in the high 30's to low 40's at night, so I'm dragging out all my blankets and warm clothes. I'm even going to wear real shoes! I just pulled a quilt off the shelf that made me remember a trip about 7 or 8 years ago that we took over New Years. We went to Caloosahatchee Regional Park. It was the coldest camping experience I'd ever had...low 20's overnight! Bill's Aunt Trudy brought her grand kids out to visit for the day and they begged to stay the night. Aunt Trudy proceeded to go home, pack up the tent and blankets and bring the kids on out. We covered the ceiling vents with blankets, drank lots of coffee and hot chocolate and had a ball! On that day Trudy gained my undying respect and admiration. Last year Trudy gave me a quilt that she used on that trip. It's going to camp with me this weekend. It sure made me smile!
