Wednesday April 13th, Wendy, Jo Ann and I set off for a wilderness unknown. We set out on an odyssey of cheap beer, canned food, dirt, music and hammocks and we had no idea what lie ahead of us...would we ever make it back alive?
We set out at 9PM from Wendy's house after about ten hugs each from her mom (very much appreciated though) and hit of all places Wendy's for a bite before hitting the road. I was fading fast and passed the wheel to Wendy at about halfway to our halfway point. We made it in and crashed about 1:30 am and then were up by 6:30 and off to the nearest Publix. Jo Ann remarked at wanting to work there. It was so clean and well stocked. I think i wouldn't mind curling up in some corner of the Greenwise section and living there. After another quick strech and one well tarped truck we made it! The place was already packed before we even made it in. We managed to find a very cute corner on the Lake and made our little sex offender village permanant. Our neighbors were already partying..... After we got settled it was time to hit the cooler of cheap beer and Jo Ann and I hit our cans of Chef Boyardee and ate it cold. The contents of those cans although incredibly unhealthy bring back memories of childhood and all things happy. A few beers and some natural white chedder cheetos later it was nap time. Of course i managed to wake up when one of our neighbors, who will be referred to as Beached Whale due to her unsightly appearance while napping, (if i put it down you'd be as horrified as i was and i'll just spare you the mental rape), was commenting on the delicious pasta in a can that I had been consuming. BW mentioned that as a child her mother would have never fed her that and then proceeded to expound on how although it was not the tastiest of meals her mother always tried to make her something good. Nice to know that her mother's culinary attempts at health at an early age did not catch on...at all. I later passed on the comments on to my companions and we decided i would save my last can of the chef for when she was around and i could prance around the campsite while eating. We finally decided at some point that it was hammock time and Wendy and i set about finding trees suitable at the mushroom stage. My trees were not far enough apart and left my hammock kinda slouchy.....Jo ann tucked in early and Wendy and i set off for drunken dinner and tunes. I was so relaxed i fell asleep in my tent and decided i'd go sleep in my real bed.
Friday brought more of the same. And this place just blew up so i'll continue tommorrow
