National Backyard Camp Out Day

Yesterday, we participated in National Backyard Camp Out Day.
We pitched our tent, and set everything up,and we had just started eating, when the thunderstorm came.
We waited it out inside, the sun came back out, we headed outside again.
We only had some things get wet, mostly outside the tent, although one window was left
open, so a pillow was quite damp.All the outdoor furniture was soaked,
so it was hard to enjoy the fire like we planned.It was also too hot. We made some s'mores and played Uno, and Trouble in
the tent. Then we heard the rumbling coming back and we went inside.
Oh well, we tried.We did go back outside this morning to hang out
and it was lovely.We'll do it another day when it's not storming.

I for one admire & respect you for trying.

You say "camping," I think "Motel 6," so I think you should be pleased with yourselves!
