This is our first attempt at cold weather tent cam

This is our first attempt at cold weather tent camping. It, honestly, hasn’t been too bad at night. First night the real feel temps dipped into single digits with SNOW but the @mrheater big Buddy kept the tent toasty warm.

Cold temps and vicious wind during the day curtailed some of our hiking plans because I am not a fan of playing outside in the cold. 🥶

Today is supposed to be much warmer so we’ll hike, climb a tower and enjoy a campfire.

It feels great to be out camping again. I think we’ll be doing a lot more of this over the coming months through fall. Not sure winter/cold weather camping will be our thing though ;)

By the way, Stony Fork Campground in @visitwytheville is one of the nicest campgrounds—clean bathrooms, flush toilets, large-ish sites with trees/foliage to provide privacy plus a trout stream runs through it (bring your fishing poles)!

Raided the travel liquor stash for our camping trip. It been a chilly adventure with day temps in the 30s and night temps dipping into “OMG it’s freezing and snowing”temps. Did I mention we’re tent camping? 😮

Another ER visit for Mom means celebrating the day

Another ER visit for Mom means celebrating the day of green at the hospital instead of at home drinking a pint. (Honestly, in a perfect world Id be having that pint in a pub in #Ireland)😢

But I do have my #IrishAtHeart shirt on to celebrate. Had I known I’d be making a ER run today I would have brought beads, hat and a feather boa to snazz this joint up a little. 🍀

How are you celebrating?

Life is looking a little more green with this love

Life is looking a little more green with this lovely #SaintPatricksDay gift pack from @visitireland. Id rather be celebrating St Patty’s Day across the pond but being surrounded by so many Irish goodies helps.

When you’re ready to travel again consider a visit to Ireland—I can’t wait to go back!!
