Camping trip gone down the tubes.

5-in-1 Survival KitLet me tell you about our Memorial Day weekend. We were going to go to Muskogee OK to the National Cemetery there for my dad’s grave decoration. We were going to make a three-day weekend out of it and camp in Muskogee. This is how things go for us every now and then.


We got our fifth wheel camper all packed and the truck ready to go. We got the camper hooked up and headed out. We stopped at Wal-Mart for a few extra things that I needed. Bruce went around the back of the camper and then came to me and said “We don’t have a plate on here.” I asked him where it was and he did not know. He thought it was expired and I told him no because I remember getting it renewed.

Well, we turned around and went back home. I unpacked the whole camper and went into the house to “stew a bit”. I sat in my chair and Bruce came in and sat in his and then he got up and went to the TV stand, on top we have some books and things. He picked up the plate and said, “look here”. I could have hit him square in the nose. It was good, it does not expire until next year.

By now it was too late to get all packed up again.

But the whole weekend is not wasted. We got up Sunday and just drove the truck and went around the Grand Lake O the Cherokees for a nice trip. We stopped and took pictures in a couple of places and ate pizza at Disney, OK. We had fun.

This is an example of what happens to us. We just go and not get angry and fight about it. We enjoy each other and make the best of life.

Life is too short to be angry. Find the best that you can out every situation. Enjoy your life. God Bless.
