Positive notes on TRF camping

[crashbot]

Well, if anyone wants to swing by 11b area on Barbarian weekend, feel free. We dont have a big group of folks, but we will watch out for those around us.

Ever heard the saying, "It takes a village to raise a child" ?

I was that child.

These people have supported me and helped raise me. And yep, I'm still kind of a kid...though not as much of a kid as I was when I first came 'round here.  I would not be who I am had it not been for the people who showed me kindness, corrupted my slightly 'normal' world, and took care of me when I needed it most.

If ever an adolescent could want to be surrounded by a diverse, open, and accepting hoard of people who come from all walks of life, this would be the place. Instead of teaching them about how DIFFERENT people are, they are taught despite the differences, these people still find a common place, can still connect, and exist together.

Camping and the magic that comes with taking that first turn after passing the guard shack, knowing that the minute I jump out of my truck, I'm too excited to figure out who I want to go and see and get a big hug from. Everything else in life disappears, for a weekend, there isn't stress or worry. Just a calm and truly content feeling.

That's what camping is for me. Fairmily and real content, and reminder of the blessings that are many of you reading this.



...alright, sappy stuff over. Carry on!

That's really sweet though. I am putting in a request for a hug when I see you as well. Provided that you're okay with hugging 4'11 ladies...

4'11" are the perfect height. Fun-sized AND they were made for the perfect face-cleavage-hug. :-
