get out

If you're looking for something to do this weekend, why not pull out the tent and camp in your backyard? The Great American Backyard Campout is tonight, June 27th! What a fun way to get some family time in outdoors! For more details or to join in and "register" your backyard, check it out here.

We'd be joining in, but someone decided it'd be a fun joke to play on Mother Nature and tell her it's July or August, not merely June, so she'd amp up the heat around here. It's just way too hot. (99° today... with a low of 79° tonight. Yuck.)

I'm thinking of setting up our mini-tent though, inside somewhere, or making a big tent or fort with quilts and blankets in one of the kids' rooms and letting them sleep in there with flashlights tonight. We'll see.

Anyone else camping out tonight?
