He who loves to haul things and run errands procured for she who mulches a trailer full of dark brown mulch yesterday and I started with my largest bed. I was optimistic and thought I would knock it out in no time. He who really hates all things involving manual labor offered to help............ knowing I would decline. His idea of mulching is to grab a shovel and sling the mulch mindlessly into the bed with no regard to where it lands as long as it is within the borders of the flower bed. I prefer to tuck it gently around my flowers and the requisite frogs that adorn all my beds. Looks nicer and I don't knock my plants around and kill them. This requires lots of bending and hauling small buckets and even though my muscles were screaming last night, I continued mulching this morning and didn't stop until I used every last tiny little handful of the stuff. I topped that off with a porch cleaning marathon ............... had to rid the porch of the cat yak I discovered and all the dead bugs. While cleaning was quite satisfying, the hour in the pool made me feel like a new person.
Tent camping has come a long way, don't you think? This one looks like a cottage. I think I could sleep in a tent. As long as it had a bed that I didn't have to fall to my knees to get into ..... and a fan ................. and a bathroom. I really like a bathroom ........... and not one I have to walk through the dark park to get to.
I like this tent, though.

that is a way cool tent...we just upgraded this year to a little bigger now that the boys are growing...and i mulch like he who...but i still have to shovel, while T makes it look nice...
That tent is way cool, but I still like all of those things you mentioned an awful lot!
I might consider camping if we had that tent...well, maybe. Have a good weekend and give those muscles a little break!

I love that tent. Nothing like the old green canvas one I used to camp in with my parents when I was a kid.
Camping gear has really changed over the years.

I like that tent. I am lamenting that I will probably never go camping again, but I do like that tent.
A whole hour in the pool just for yourself. How heavenly!
I have never seen a tent like that before! How cool! When we camp we tent camp. I would prefer to sleep in a camper myself but my hubby says camping is not camping unless you are sleeping in a tent.
This summer seems to have gone by quickly and mostly uneventfully for you. either that or I've had my head up my...ah, never mind.
I wish it was cool enough here to work outside but not for another month probably.
And that is a very cool tent.
Very cool tent, but I'm with you on the bathroom thing. A very necessary thing for someone our age - and not down the block.
When we camp we look like the Beverly Hillbillies...we definitely take our air mattress! I agree about the bathroom thing though. That's why we haven't gone camping for the last few years. The last time I was 6 months pregnant and had to get up 8 times to pee during the night-in the rain. That was enough to last me for awhile!
I'm happy to hear that you are actually getting to enjoy your space!
nice tent - but i'm with you... i prefer electricity, a real bed, running water, and flushing toilets (without taking a long walk).
but i still like the tent.
We used to tent...about 25 years ago, younger and more agile, these days I do not think I could do it. We have a 32 foot prowler with queen bed, slide out, bunks, a/c, the works.....I love it and could not imagine camping any other way at this point in my life! I do like that tent and I always admire tents and it makes me reminisce to my younger days. LOL.
