We are still recovering mentally and financially from our trip to Huntsville, so we have not done much this week, just like last week. We spent a ton of time on soccer fields and will continue to do so most of the next two months because days we don’t have practice, me and Ellie will practice together because I don’t need to have a superstar on my team if I develop my daughter into one 😉.
What I do have for yall is my next adventure outing. I am planning in the very near future. Once it starts to warm up a little more in the night, we will take up one of our favorite adventures. Camping at a fishing hole. As a matter of fact, this is something you will see us do quite a bit now that I don’t have a pregnant wife, and I feel I can physically do it.
I have done some research and want to be close enough that if it doesn’t work, we can come home at night, so I found a campground on the Tennesse River not too far from us. J.P. Coleman State Park. It says it has primitive camp sites, which is what we want. It also has good fishing, which has been a special thing to this family.
When we first got married, we used to fish the rocks off Camp Pendleton and catch nothing, but we loved it. Fast toward a few years, and you would find me and Bethany on a pier in South Carolina daily catching fish, crabs, and shrimp to eat that day along with our little garden in the backyard for vegetables. It was something the two of us will never let go of as the most perfect days of our marriage.
While in Kansas City, I spent a lot of that time lost with my life and lost all ambitions for anything, and didn’t pick back up fishing until I once again felt good about being me. My children quickly fell in love with catching fish and eating fish. So we spent many weekends camping and fishing all over Nevada.
Since my accident, I have not felt up to trying to camp yet, but we have fished some here and there. I do feel ready to go out and camp again. I am happily planning this next adventure and can’t wait to write about it and share pictures from the days to come.
