We went tenting final weekend by the Russian River, and Marnie tagged together with us, which added a distinct spin to our normal routine. I’ve by no means gone tenting with a canine, so it was a primary!
For this journey, I attempted one thing new; I spent much less time taking pics on my cellphone and extra time making an attempt to be current. I solely took a handful of pictures, together with the one on the prime.
Have you ever ever tried this? It’s been years since I’ve tried to not seize a minimum of a great quantity of images throughout a visit on my cellphone, and it was kinda bizarre for me.
I’m unsure how I really feel about it! On one hand, it was very nice to not really feel the necessity to continually doc all the things. I actually tried tougher to burn pictures in my thoughts and seize the sentiments for the time being—the sweetness of seeing Marnie stroll proper as much as the sting of the river and getting proper into the water with none hesitation, or how my coronary heart swelled when Connor and Marnie seemed so peaceable curled up collectively sleeping within the tent.
However then again, I kinda want I took a minimum of a snap or two of these moments, in order that years from now, I might get a type of reminders on my cellphone that reveals me that I used to be by the water with my folks on this particular day.
I legit marvel if I’m gonna keep in mind it, ya know? I used to have a stellar reminiscence; for years, and up till just lately, I might keep in mind even seemingly small issues, like all my locker mixtures throughout center and highschool, LOL! And now I can barely keep in mind what I did final Monday, eek.
Oh, on a considerably unrelated observe, if you happen to *do* take a canine tenting, one factor I realized this time round is to avoid wasting slightly additional vitality to provide the canine a shower if you get dwelling as a result of they get completely filthy! My goodness.
Anywho, are you the kind of one that simply takes a couple of photos on a visit and is okay with that, or do you are feeling the necessity to doc each second?
Your pleasant neighborhood magnificence addict,
Karen
P.S. Glad Wednesday. I hope this week has been treating you nicely!
