Labor Day

This camping trip seems like a perfect bookend to a great season. Not only did we stay at the same campground as on Memorial Day weekend, we got the same campsite (Unit #5).

The end of the camping season is always a little bittersweet for me. As we pack up our tent and sleeping bags for the winter I'm sad that we won't use them again until the Spring. On the other hand, I revel in fond memories of places we've been and people we've met this summer.

I'm sure that we'll have many more excellent adventures in the future, but I think that 2015 will be hard to match in terms of epicitude. It seems like we've been everywhere (just like in the Johnny Cash song). On this year's travels I spent 30 nights sleeping outdoors in a tent, 12 hotel stays, and 6 overnights as a guest with friends and family. I visited 31 U.S. states and 1 Canadian province. I will always remember this summer!
