Urban Adventures Part II


Urban Adventures Part II
Originally uploaded by suzannemo.
Last weekend we had a plan for a REAL outdoor adventure. We had reserved the campsite, bought sleeping-bags, organized tents, and were ready for a weekend in the real wilderness(the hinterlands of New Jersey.) Unfortunately, Mother Nature didn't like the idea and heavy rains came on Friday with no sign of stopping.

Most people would have given up on camping, but my innovative friends decided to invent a new sport...URBAN CAMPING. Saturday night 10 of us convened at my apartment for a crazy night of candle-lit non-electricity activities, roasting smores on the stove, singing camp-fire songs, and sleeping in sleeping bags on the floor. It was almost like real camping...except for the part where we ordered Thai food for dinner, or the part where we turned the air-conditioner on because it was too hot.....ok, truth be told..it might have been BETTER than real camping!!!

Do Jim, Rickesh, and Scott count as wildlife??

Hmm..I was in the middle of a workout at 12:06.... I thought that warm-fuzzy feeling was just the pilates moves but I now realized it was your positive energy that I was feeling :)
