I'm getting ready to go camping with the barbarians, and they are all busy this morning with summer classes and theater and dance. So I'm baking scones and waiting until they are back to load the heavy things in the car. I don't recall saying they could go on ahead and just have their own lives and stuff. Hmmph. (Actually this is our annual trip with family friends, and we deliberately choose a close-in campground so the spawn can go back and forth from jobs and such.) I'm looking forward to being in the woods by the campfire and getting out onto the lake.
