Mike went on a camping trip this past week, and I didn’t. Sad to say, I’ve lost most of my interest in camping. I guess it’s mostly the going to the bathroom outside. Just not my style anymore. I still like getting out and hiking, but camping has lost most of its charm for me at the ripe old age of 61.
An old friend of Mike’s invited him up to Wyoming for a few days of mostly male bonding I suspect, who knows. Oh yeah, he does! I stayed home and was reminded of how I spent most of my adult life living alone and enjoying it. There are so many positive aspects to living alone. I love to wake up and just see how my day progresses in a natural way, with no outside influences.
Mike drove up to southern Wyoming to camp with old friends at Curt Gowdy State Park. He took some nice shots of the area to share with you.
Mike is into dam construction. I remember one trip to 
I like this photo of the stairs up to the dam. Imagine creating that!

For MANY years I did a great deal of camping, hiking, canoeing, fishing and hunting. Loved it too. These days I appreciate the joys of a comfortable bed, hot water and flush. Just saying.

Yes Marion, I experienced a bit of “toilet trauma” on our last camping trip down to Arizona, and I thought, “No more of this!”

Great photos…thanks Mike! A little time apart can be good for everyone. About the only hiking I would like to do is maybe to a spa. Glad you are making friends too, and with him away it’s an opportunity to do anything you want. Enjoy!

You guys are so nice to me! Time apart is always a good thing, especially when you live out in the country in a relatively isolated area.
