Some
of the best times I’ve had were the result of an impromptu event and this was
no exception. Our camping neighbor, Gabe,
had mentioned that he had been a performing musician during his life and
when some old friends of his unexpectedly showed up in the campground, they
decided some music around a campfire was in order.
About
30 minutes later we were gathered round the fire, where some roasted weenies,
others just sipped a beer, some bundled up under a blanket – it was a little
cool - and we all enjoyed the sunset over Lake Okeechobee.
For
at least three hours, Gabe played and sang classic country using his guitar
signed by The Hag.
We
had such a good time and only wish more campers had joined us. While it's been cool here, the house sitter reports it's downright cold at home.
A Little Philosophy
As I have gone through life, three things I’ve learned – be honest with myself about who I am down deep, love myself for who I am, realize that others opinions of me are just that and only I know the real me, only then I will be comfortable enough to allow others to see the me that I see.

Have
a great day and thanks for stopping by Almost Heaven South.

ReplyDeleteI would have loved to have been around that campfire. What a great evening. And love the new look. Isn't it a wider format? And with that question, wouldn't it allow you to post your photos larger? I'm always clicking to enlarge. Go Broncos. :)
