Another fun aspect of camping, if you do it right, is the lack of electricity. Being ever the woods woman, I brought my iPod to entertain everyone with sounds beyond the crickets and other creatures making noises in the night. It’s a small deviation from “roughing it” because you can already see the pains with which Shari make her coffee (read post).
As part of our overnight adventure, we cooked on a fire and we used flashlights (we had two for four people), so we made use of the many candles (some scented) that Shari brought. Since we were lacking candle holders, I did what any enterprising young woman would do, I cut up soda cans. Yessiree, we were roughing it alright.
And this is our lovely fire and light show present to you from our camping/beach trip last week. Stay tuned for one more post about the oddities we encountered along the way.

Lovely votives, seriously! I wouldn’t have thought of using the cans for that! I would have probably tried to prove how tough I think I am by crushing them against my forehead!
