Tanglewood

The second annual Halloween in Tanglewood extravaganza has come to a close. Two nights in the woods and the cold doing nothing but sleeping and drinking and poking the fire has never been so exhausting! We arrived just after nightfall on Friday night, only to find out that SOMEONE forgot our tent. The one thing you really need when spending 2 nights in the middle of dense woods. It was ok though, James brought an extra. In all there were about 20 people out in Tanglewood. It was only our second trip out there, but James' family bought and have been camping on this land for the last 30 years. It now has a running outdoor shower, (with warm water) a kitchen, and the beginnings of a small house in the back. It's really nice not to have to poo in the woods!


Saturday was relaxing until it got dark and a few people decided to go late night 4-wheeling. Tiffany came back with a really bruised up foot, so James and I loaded her into the truck and drove out to the Rockdale emergency room. She has a pretty bad sprain, and a tiny piece of bone floating around in the top of her foot, but she's going to make it!


Sunday I didn't even let Souly out of the car. My mean old dog picked a fight every chance he got, and now I can't trust him. I've had him since 1994, and apparently when dogs get older, they get meaner. I love him, but if Rachel and I had a child, he would be retired at my parents house by now. I swear, he didn't used to be like that, but now, he's just so territorial and crodgedy that he can barely be controlled. Oh well. From now on he only goes if no one else does.
