We bought a tent! June 13, 2004 ~ 10:07 pm
Posted by Julie in : Daily Grind , trackbackRick and I got out of town yesterday afternoon, and God was it nice. Went upstate, near West Point and Bear Mountain, where there are about five million lakes, and went hiking. I love hiking, but don’t often get out of the city, so this was a real treat.
And then we went shopping at Woodbury Commons outlet mall. This was weird. Rick doesn’t like to shop because he’s a man. But yesterday it was his idea to go to Woodbury Commons, so we went. And bought him sandals, and sunglasses, and some pants and a jacket. It was after we bought all of this that I learned something very important. Rick likes shopping when we’re getting him stuff. Otherwise, he just considers it aimless wandering. A glimpse into the male psyche.
After Woodbury, we went to Modell’s (where we bought the sandals), and while we were there we noticed that tents were on sale - 25% off. I’ve been wanting to get a tent and go camping for a month and a half now, and yesterday, in the face of discount tents, Rick capitulated. We bought a four man tent so that we can take the girls camping this summer. Now comes the fun of looking for camping equipment and campsites to go to. I can’t wait!!!
