It is the Weblos Scouts' camping trip, and Karen is the camper in the family, not me, so she decided to join William for the two-night campout. But she had to work today, so I brought William to the site, started the set-up of the tent, and hauled most of what we needed out of my car with a lot of help from my soon-to-be-ten-year-old son.
Karen got stuck in traffic and didn't arrive until 8:30 or so. I left them there, with a steady drizzling (and unpredicted) rain and no cell phone service. But they'll be okay. They have lots of company (it's not just the one pack that's camping, and there's an on-site district leader), and Karen is a well-seasoned camper.
I'll miss the two of them, but with the busy weekend I mentioned in the previous post, it will pass quickly. And the boys have Monday off to recover! Karen, unfortunately, does not.
I think I'd better plan something very special—and very relaxing—for my lovely lady on Sunday night.
