What time is it again?

Camping '08 This past weekend Jen and I made it up to the White Mountains good ‘ol New Hampshire. Specifically we ended up in Bethlehem at a cozy little camp ground which runs year round. The occasion was for my Cousins surprise 29th birthday. We all piled (about 6 of us) into vehicles and pulled up to his house at 10am and surprised the crap out of him when he found out he was about to spend a long weekend of drinking :D (oh and camping of course) Overall it was a good trip and many many beers were consumed, wiffle ball was played, and things were burned (mostly wood..). The campground however left allot to be desired. You were very close to your neighbors, the wood was extremely overpriced and burned like it had been soaked in gasoline, and the asshat camp staff (dubbed the “Asian Pig” for his Chinese Eyes and Pig Nose) talked down to us like we were 8 year olds when we were sitting around chatting after the 10pm “Quiet Time” (Who the fuck goes to bed at 10pm on a vacation?) and on numerous occasions he gave us ultimatums to leave, even had the balls to come up to us at 8:30am the next morning to rub it in some more.

But overall it was a fun time and everyone had a blast. The down side? After arriving home Jen and I were both sick which means the chances of me camping again anytime soon are pretty slim. The outdoors seems to hate me and worst of all there is no Internet. But my iPod brought me and the group solace with music and a carefully selected porn scene as a conversation piece. Go Apple!

    Hey Sterling,

    I have just the remedy for your internet woes while you are camping. So IF you have verizon wireless and IF you have an LG phone and IF you can have the means to connect it to your computer (whew), give this link a whirl.

    I know Gryph! What lameness…

    Back in my camping days…the only wood you got was what you found on the ground. And there were no people for miles around…you hacked your finger off you better hope you had some ice left for the half-hour ride to where you might be able to get help.

    Guess NE really is as wussy as you’ve always told me. :)

    I’ve heard of them, but I haven’t seen people admit to using them.
