Last Friday night I experienced my first backpacking trip. I got my own backpack and everything. It was a small hike to start with. 2.6 miles in... We pitched a tent, started a fire, made some top raman and then just went to
bed. I slept the best I ever have in a tent. We camped next to a river and so it was nice and calming. The water also drowned out any creepy forest noises that usually keep me up. There was two bad things about the trip... My sandals were new so they beat the crap out of my feet (four blisters) and I am totally out of shape. But that is why we are becoming more active! I have to add that despite me shoes... I didn't complain once! Which is not like me at all.. :) I am excited for next weekend but I think we will just do a day hike.P.S. There was hot springs and they were really pretty...but it is too dang hot to get in them!
