No real purpose to this post, just sat quietly alone, reflecting. Well other than the rapidly diminishing wine supply.
We, two daughters and I, are camping. We love camping and do it a lot. Even in the UK.
Camping here though, is rather cool. Its been in the low 30s all week, forecast to stay that way for another month or two.
We're camped maybe 30ft from what is, apparently, a 45 sq mile lake with perfectly clear water. The backdrop is an active volcano, though it hasn't had a major eruption for a number of years.
All cooking done on a campfire and the only sound I can hear is the girls playing out in the lake in kayaks. Or maybe canoes, I never know the difference.
I know we're not the only ones here because I can see another tent a bit away, though maybe they've died because there's been no movement for a few days. But that's about it.
Sometimes life is just rather pleasant.
But it does rather make me wonder why I have spent so much of my life rushing between the World's major cities.

Is there a way to include photos when you're on a phone?

I've decided that all I really need is a pot of money sufficient to see me out, a hammock, an old but serviceable 4x4, a decent mountain bike, an atlas and a straw hat.

Is there a way to include photos when you're on a phone? Yes. Find the little link in the blue bar at the bottom of the screen to Desktop. The controls will get rather small on a phone screen but you’ll be able to Add Attachments from your photo stream. Then T&E will tell you off for doing it all wrong. 🙉

He might be using an app like Tapatalk to post. Although he didn't mention he was.

I hope he isn’t. Tapatalk is shockingly awful.

Ours in that we rented it for #1's fishing.
Though we needn't have bothered, she is fishing from a kayak. Or a canoe. The one that is open and doesn't enclose the lower body.

Actually, now I look more carefully, that boat is nothing to do with us. It's not even there now, but it could be out on the lake somewhere.
Dammit, 45sq miles and now two boats. It's like Piccadilly Circus round here.

Difficult to say which is the stronger, her dislike of camping or our dislike of being anywhere near her when she is camping.
