I took my daughter and one of our dogs camping for one night at Fort Stevens State Park for one last summer adventure and although short, it was remarkably reviving. I rarely regret these adventures. Memories–hearing the rain on the tent when we first arrived, my daughter diverting rainwater stream and shaping it into a hook, the next day’s blue in the ocean and sky, the lake in the morning, the campfire and cooking hamburger on it and reading in the tent before falling asleep, our dog’s excitement and company, heating water and making coffee, my daughter running around and playing in the sand.
