Jane and Jane go camping

So the Jane and Jane team strike again. A camping we go...Diane and Gayle set out for one of those joyous, laid back, easy going camping trips. Yeah right.
We borrow my neighbor's pop up trailer. This is going to be a piece of cake. Well you know that old saying, never say "piece of cake". It only means trouble.
After a 3 hour tutorial, yes 3 hours. Let me tell you, there was a lot to learn and we used every minute of those 3 hours. Thank you Bill & Kathy!
We struggled on location, even with the best directions. Finally 2 men that were sitting with their families enjoying the entertainment during dinner came across the campground and saved the day. We would have figured it out, I'm sure.
The first night dinner was delish. We started with mojitos...aaah. My house rubbed rib eye steaks were amazing... as always! It's really all about the rub. Dinner was made square by a bountiful salad with tons of veggies and mango salad dressing. Yes, that was made scratch as well. Dessert...who had room. The night finished with a roaring fire, even through a consistent drizzle of rain. We kept warm by keeping our chairs snuggled up close to the heat.
