Welcome to the Roving ClubHouse, a BIG Thank You to Barb for her hosting duties that she performs so well, Love ya Sis ♥♥
Well summer is here, kidlets out of school time for summer trips and vacations. Some go nice and smooth and some go like one of mine did.
This was to be a wonderful camping and fishing trip for my family (Hubby, son & 4 dogs). Had my check list to ensure we wouldn’t forget anything seeing we were going to be there for a week.
Had our reservation in a lovely camping area called West Point Lake, each camp site was set up with a large pad for your tents and they also provided you with a large grill, canopy and table.
So we get everything packed in the truck, dogs and me in the car and off we go. The drive is around 1.5 hours to get there. Traffic was great got there without a hitch.
Arrival, 1st thing to do is set up the dog kennel, hubby and I start on this with our son playing with the dogs (who are a little crazy at this point from the ride in the car and they want to run) were almost finish when 2 of the dogs get loose and running all over the camp area, barking and chasing other peoples dogs (son trying hard to restrain the other on their leashes) I’m ready to kill them. Finally catch the little bees and I’m ready to load them back in the car and go home but we’re here for fun and relaxation. (Fine way to start)
Next is the tent, we have a large tent that will sleep 12 people or 3 people and 4 dogs. Moving on, an hour later the tent’s up, beds inflated (me don’t do sleeping bags) lights hung. Perfect.
Time to take a walk to the water, we have one of the best sites here, from our camp site you walk maybe 200 feet and your feet are in the water, just lovely. The boys get set to do some fishing and me, I go about making something to eat . The rest of the day was great. The weather was beautiful, not to hot and with a nice breeze.
Breakfast over and clean up, I head to water to catch some sun, what a day, water felt wonderful(hope I didn't over do it) but I’m ready to do a bit of fishing myself so I start to run back to our camp site to get my pole.
As I was running up the path I guess not really watching where I was going, I tripped and hit my head on a tree trunk and split my head open, geez that hurt. So I’m yelling for hubby I’m sitting there hand on my head blood running down my arm.
We leave our son at the site and make our way to find a hospital. A few hours later we’re back and I have 6 staples in my head.
It’s still early evening, the boys go back to fishing I go about dinner. And hopefully I get to fish some.
At last, I get my line in the water, catching some nice crappies (hubby & son have been doing really well) when hubby gets a really big bite on his line and yells for me to get the net as I jump up to grab it from behind him his line snaps his pole swings back and hits me right between my eyes and knocks me on my arse, ouch.
Enough fishing for me today, I head back to camp to read a bit and put an ice pack on my face and realize I have a nice sunburn.
It’s turning dark and starting to sprinkle a bit so the boys come back to camp, when hubby looks at me and says holly sh*t, I said what? He ask if I had looked at my face, no. So I do and wonderful, I’m not getting 1but 2 black eyes. What a wonderful day.
I gather the dogs and head to the tent as the rain is getting heavier, the boys take take of the pole, iced the fish and followed. We enjoyed a little TV and called it a night.
A few hours later we’re in the middle of really bad storm. (geez) the loud thundering and lightning are scaring the dogs then the worse thing, the damn tent starts leaking right above our bed, we move the bed and try to sleep.
Day break, the floor of the tent has about an inch of water, the dogs are wet and it’s still pouring down rain. What a way to start a vacation, I have staples in my head, 2 black eyes, a sunburn, a tent that leaks, wet dogs, all in the first 24 hours.
Please share some of your best or worse vacations ☺♥☺

We went to sleep and about dawn I woke up and heard a noise. Sounded like growling to me. Woke hubby up and he said "Go back to sleep. Just a raccoon probably knocking off a trash can lid." They often did that in the campground. I laid there and heard it again this time louder. Definately a growl.!
Time for bed. We had to repack a lot of the gear in the car so we had enough room to spread out our sleeping bags in the tent. That included the cooler and food to keep it safe from raccoons.
My hubby and I used to spend our summer vacations tent camping in the mountains usually in one of the public parks. At the time we went simple mostly because we had a Volkswagon Beatle which is very small and had to get all our camping gear in it. We got to the park, set up, and had a nice day.
The competition was the amazing part!! Poor roach had four of them after him!! He tried and tried to escape, but they weren't letting up!! It was gang-rape, roach style!! Bizarrest damn thing...
You should taken pictures and posted it UTube, you have had a thousand hits by now :-))))
Kept charging to the front of the other roach, raising wings, and backing into it's face!! Over and over!! So happy I wasn't watching that on a hallucinogenic!! "Secrets of the Cockroach Sisterhood", LMAO!!
OMG, roach oral sex????? :-)))))
Holy crap!! I always thought mating cats were depraved - but I just spent a half-hour watching cockroaches mate!! That was one HORNY roach!! First time I've ever seen that, and it was worth sitting on the porch to watch!!
Rusty you have to much time on your hands sweetie :-)))))))))
