It’s been… uh… nearly 2 decades ago since I last went camping. You know, in a real tent and all that. I used to love it. But, the operative words here are ‘used to’. I’m not quite sure if I’m still any good at this sort of thing.
Well, for the next 3 days or so, I’m going to find out if I can still ‘rough it’. It’s exciting, but scary too. Especially since I’d have a one-year-old baby boy who’ll be doing this for the first time ever, as one of my camping companions.
Anyway, in case you don’t know yet, the second episode of FreshWave.TV is now airing. It’s all about glassblowing featuring Jacq Knight, a glass artist from Canberra, Australia.
Also, the 4th, 5th and 6th podcast shows are now up at Shai in 60 Seconds. I talked about unwinding, my geeky delights, and indie music in these podcasts.
OK. Off to get ready for camp now…
Oh, and yes, to all who’re celebrating: Advanced Happy Easter!
‘hope you enjoy your long weekend.

Have a great time! I remember how I enjoyed going on camping retreats when I was young. Now, I feel like I’ve lost the excitement of camping, but it seems like you still have it. So I think you’ll enjoy it very much.

Hey, I read ya and love you. You’re amazing and beautiful art moves me. Blogging is the life, and I never really get to comment much anymore, but I’m coming out of my hiding spot for a second to say that you’re awesome.
Also, I’m writing a blog that is becoming a book thanks to 20,000k + readers in 2 weeks that have just picked up my link and run with it. I thought I’d fill you in on my adventures.
Thanks Shai,
Alli

Audrey/An orange: Yes, I had fun. Thanks. I even have a video to prove it.
Anyway, I wonder why you’ve lost your excitement with camping?
Alli: Thanks for writing! I’m sending you an email response, as I have a few things I’d like to ask you.

I was just thinking it has been a while since I have camped out. People just get busier as they get older and don’t have the time or energy most of the time.
I hope it went well for you.
