Camping in Prescott

We just returned from one of our most eventful camping trips ever.
Late last week, Drew and I decided to head up to Prescott to enjoy some outdoor time together. After checking the weekend weather on Friday night, we made a list of all the things we needed to pack and what we needed to pick up at the grocery store on the way out of town. Saturday morning we packed up the car, printed out the direction and headed out of town. After a nice 2 hour drive up to Prescott and some less than accurate directions, we were almost to Granite Basin and the campground. Out of the blue, Drew asked me if I had put the tent into the car, which I hadn't. Turns out he hadn't either and as we pulled into the campground we knew for sure that we had no tent!!
The good news is that there are no bugs or rain to worry about in AZ this time of year, the bad news is it was going to drop into the 30's during the night. Weighing our options we decided to tough it out and sleep under the stars. Well, it was cold for sure, but the sky full of stars we fell asleep to more than made up for a few shivers. We may never bring our tent again!!
We had a great time and even did a few hours of hiking in the woods. Every time we go camping we remember how much we love it, so why does it seem to take us 10 months to plan the next trip!! Hopefully this will be the first of many camping trips this year!!

All hope is not lost

Well, it's March and we are still in Phoenix. We are having a great time, mind you, so we aren't complaining, but we were really starting to wonder if we would ever get to Prague. I unpacked everything and even planted a spring veggie garden as it seemed less and less likely that we were going anywhere.
Well, it looks like we may still be going to Prague sometime in the next month. Drew's company is working very hard to get the deals signed and his boss still believes that we will be going to Prague sometime in the next month. So I haven't started to repack yet, but I stopped my short lived job search and we are back to the waiting game.

There have been a few benefits to waiting until spring to go to Prague, most noticeable is the weather in Phoenix versus Prague. And most importantly to a young niece of ours, we were able to attend Sierra's 4th birthday party this past weekend.

Big news for the Team Middleton family, Swiss no longer hates Manchego!! We wouldn't go so far as to say they are friends, but at least the big cat fights have ceased. World peace can't be far behind.

Happy spring to everyone! Hope the snow melts soon or the heat doesn't start too early, depending on where you are.
