Camping in the Rain

Rainy day camping in a self converted camper van

Raindrops ting on the metal roof of the van, playing a natural symphony of beauty and surprise. Everyone has drifted asleep by the warmth of our cozy wood burning Dickinson Marine fireplace. Camping in the rain has brought us a welcomed moment of idle time.

Orange zest biscuits just out of the oven, my favo Orange zest biscuits just out of the oven, my favorite @vancefamilysoycandles Mt Hood Forest candle filling the room with a cozy cabin vibe as I day dream over my new A-Frame book @modernaframe and watch these green onions grow. Re-grow food scraps, a fun little indoor project for these cold days!  Super satisfying for the Littles to watch too as these green onions grow like an inch overnight 🥳 #regrowveggies #cozysundaymorning #cabindreams
I had bananas smashed in a bowl for a Maple Cinnam I had bananas smashed in a bowl for a Maple Cinnamon Banana bread and some bone broth doing it’s magic in the Instant Pot.  There was slime on the kitchen counter, a princess tent in the hallway, school work and bills on the table and miscellaneous stuffed animals and stacking toys under my feet at every step.  The Husband mentions, “It’s gana be 70s and off shore at the beach. Adventure?” So, while everyone was stockpiling for this years annual Wintery Storm, I closed up my kitchen projects, packed a cooler, pack’n play, swimsuits, sand toys, and 2 days worth of clothes.  We escaped, headed South for warmer weather to an island, with palm trees and a private heated pool.  The ocean just over the sand dune… My new favorite secret place 💕 #tothebeach
