Carrying fifty pounds on your back for two weeks is the best. Honest. A little rain, especially at night when you are warm in your tent, is great. It's even fun to weather a little rain storm under a pine tree for a half hour or so. But the adventure happens on a five mile, steep uphill trek on a muddy trail in a downpour. That's the kind of day that's fun to talk about afterward. The next year, when things get rough and you're huffing your way up a mountain with your (lets face it, I mean me not you, because you wouldn't be caught dead actually DOING this) spouse, you can say, "remember that one year?"And he'll say, "yeah this is great compared to that".

HA. That's a great picture Marilyn. You should use that to have some type of caption contest. Cheers to ya!!
That's like the song, "Never saw anything that didn't look better looking back". Love the bedraggled picture.
Yeah. You're right. Wouldn't be caught dead...
Actually, with the right man, I would.

Have a great day!
Thanks for participating in Manic Mondays!
Matt: Thanks :)
Jamie: Adventures are always more fun in the telling.
Mo: We just have to find you the right man so you can come with us. We've taken other people with us in the past but never found a couple to share the experience with.
Can't say I would relish the uphill battle in the mud - nope, can't say!
It looks like a cloud came down from the sky to hang out for a while.

Is that a igor hump on your back or are you just happy to see me?
I prefer not to be wet and cold like that. My idea of camping is a nice comfy motor home with a full kitchen and also a shower and bathroom.
