Just a suggestion. http://www.addis-welt.de/smilie/smilie/hausarbeit/strik.gif
We returned earlier today from our vacation in upper Michigan (we have a small cabin on the lake).
It's a wonderful place - fishing, swimming, gathering shells, we feed deer and seagulls, we always pick wild blueberries, take long drives through the woods on some of the old snowmobile trails (we actually saw two black bears this year) eat all the whitefish, fresh fried or smoked, we can handle - it's great.
Our kids love it, as I loved it when I was a kid. We're all sun-baked and sand-covered and I have a feeling I'll never get the sand and shells out of my car.
The only problem? Our cabin is nestled among other family cabins. Lots of relatives around that area. I love them all - well, most of 'em, anyway!
But sometimes privacy is difficult to find. Please imagine the possible dangerous situations:
*drying sexy lingerie and thong panties on the community clothesline. It's imperative because there really isn't enough room inside the cabin. What will great-Gram say when she notices the crotchless panties and the black lace and the thongs???
*forgetting about the X-rated DVD's still inside the player when all the little cousins come over to watch SpongeBob and have microwave popcorn (and no, we saved the day just in time)
*in that same vein, how about any *ahem* battery-powered toys that could be accidently discovered by the same wild group of kids? (Actually, I sacrified my batteries to help a nephew's truck run properly, so I think I deserve a prize for that.)
*Or any time in the evening when you wish to be alone. We get the kids asleep and then we usually have people knocking on the door - "C'mon, let's go - Ya want a beer, eh?"
Obviously, my idea of camping doesn't include "roughing it". Hell, my sister and her hubby brought their Direct TV dish and we all had incredible reception! (Very important, 'cause we got to watch every minute of the Democratic Convention.)
And I'm not complaining - our vacation was perfect. But I guess we'll just have to wait until all the kids and cousins are older so mommy and daddy can have a bit more privacy.
*sigh*
(We'll just have to make up for lost time.)
