Labor Day Get-A-Way

We were invited to go camping with some friends 
and we don't usually do back-to-back camping trips
but we haven't been camping as much the past two years
(for different reasons)
and we hated saying "no" again to these friends. 
So, even though we had gone to Miami last week...
It was a long, holiday weekend anyway, and not far from home, so why not?

We met up with four other couples and had a great time. 
The odd thing is, that a hurricane was making landfall in our beautiful Sunshine State
quite a ways north of us, but still - it was bringing rain to most of the state. 
When we woke up Friday morning, it was dark and rainy, 
but within a few  hours the rain had stopped.
We had a pretty good weekend, weather-wise. Just an occasional shower that didn't last long.
We shared meals together, as well as stories about our families and our trips away. 
They did not all have buses, but they did all have interesting stories to tell 
about their coaches or their travels.

One of the gals we were camping with wanted to host a Jewelry Bar 
so we decided to do it from the bus - now that was fun!



You don't have to have a lot of room 
and you don't have to have any certain number of people.
We had fun, looking at all the pieces (especially the charms) 
and what they meant to the people they were creating their lockets for. 

I hope you all had a fun and safe holiday weekend, too!
Tomorrow will be the start of a short Work Week Whoo Hoot!!!

OH, one last thing:
I did pretty good with my eating while away, 
even the scale confirmed that, 
but I came home just craving something like this:






But instead had one of these:



YAY for me!!!!

But my husband's birthday is just a few days away
 and I can't wait to bite into his birthday cake!
