Open for business

The Covered Wagon gets it's first visitor this weekend! On our shakedown cruise (overnight stay at a state park near my sister's house) we'd had campsite visitors. A long-time family friend and two of her children came by to "oooh" and "aaah" appropriately. :) This weekend my sister has one night at that same campground "just because" and her most frequent camping buddy will be joining her. These two normally camp in tents and even hike in to places- including up a GA mountain to a "green" hotel which can only be reached by trails. Not your garden variety girls (nor your garden variety girls roadtrip, either). We're kind of excited to get someone else's take on the C.W. since it's everything we expected and twice as comfortable, actually. Hopefully, we're not ruining a good thing and all the luxury won't lure them from their more strenuous and, frankly, impressive goals. Being a bad influence is a good thing (wink-wink) but I'm impressed by what they've gone through to enjoy some one-of-a-kind experiences in the past.

Mama, Tug and I plan to join them for a few hours around the campfire but then bug out and let them have a quiet night. Cross your fingers for less buggy weather! LOL
