hiking

In a few days I will be out and about

Camping in California and the Grand Canyon

Singing songs from Wicked all day

Then there's a mule I need to ride

They don't show this part on the brochure

Cooking over an open flame

Resting and taking it easy

Camping in the mountains, the desert,
and even the beach

Hiking around

Maybe go rafting

Did you hear something?

In the Army, I hated bivouac (camping out)

And road marching (hiking)

I guess it's all about how you see things
and what you call it!

And look it this!
A Bloggers Camping Get Away!
Now I ask you....
What is not to like about that!

Glad I am learning new ways to look at things!
"Hate" is really just another word for "fear"
And is not about power at all.
Hate is the opposite of empowerment!
But You knew that, right?

Thanks Loretta, for letting me doodle along
on Toon Tuesdays!

Hope you are loving your days!

  4. Great post, Anne. Hate is another word for fear. And fear is our biggest foe. Fat is just a symptom, I think.

    Have a wonderful time on your trip. I look forward to hearing of your adventures.

  5. Your doodles are great! You actually make camping look fun and I hate camping lol!

    Anne: Hate is another word for fear.
    Roxie: Fat is just a symptom

    I'll be thinking about that all day.

  6. I don't fear camping, I just really, really dislike it. Have a great time! When we visited the GY we picked up a fascinating book called something like "death in the canyon."

  7. OH! I want to go camping. Especially at the Grand Canyon. I can go vicariously through you and your pictures. :)

    Hope you have a fantastic time. I'm a little wicked green with envy. :P

  8. I only fear the inconvenience of change, perhaps....
    Or maybe challenge.... or failure....
    But probably I fear success most of all!
    Success and Endeavor. Or Self-discovery?
    That - and bugs!
    ;D

  14. This happens every year.....
    Every trip! Every time.
    I feel like I am going to hurl.
    Even to type this.
    Cold sweat.
    I would just as soon forget it and go to bed -
    at 5 pm.
    Where's my distraction therapy?
    Oh yeah, that makes me anxious, too.
    I keep forgetting.

  18. Coming out to California are you? Sounds like you're going to stay south in the desert areas - can't image anyone camping in the snowy Sierra right now or anytime soon. Another storm is heading in tonight. Brrr.

    Love your drawings, Anne. Wishing you exciting and safe adventures.

    Why not, eh?
    My work week is done...... just sitting here like a dumb ass
    as per my usual self..... it didn't use to be like this.....
    I was once a vital person with good things going on!
    Not a nervous wreck...

  21. Thanks - I'm as safe there as I am in Dallas -
    or any place else I've ever visited!
    I did train in the Army for 8 years.....
    No stranger to tents or camping or hardship or
    things that suck
