anniversary weekend

So Beer Farmer and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary this weekend. We chose to do this by trekking out into the greatest wilds of Illinois for a few days. A whopping hour away from Chicago, our route took us due West. The journey was hard. But we survived to tell the tales of crackling fires, cool breezes, huge birds of prey, tiny little friends, and of course at least one other campsite who refused to realise why we were all there and insisted on playing their heavy metal bands (loudly) late into the night while glued to their laptops, ipods and car stereo systems. It was pretty funny when you stop to think about it.

Despite "those damn teenagers" it was a lovely though short weekend. Pictures can be found here.

I love you, Beer Farmer - here's to many more camping trips!
