On Our Way

Tomorrow Joe, Daphne, and I are headed out on our first camping trip together. Joe and I have been camping before ... but have never brought a dog along with us! We are headed out to Moon Lake which is in Roosevelt. We decided to take Daphne because she is the best behaved dog off of her leash. She is very good at coming when called and staying close by. I trust her ... 94%! I can't give the full 100% since this is so unknown. We are hoping that she likes the lake. Labs are supposed to like water ...

The last time I went to moon lake was probably close to 20 years ago. Spencer was just a baby and Greg was probably 2. We were there with the entire Stohel family -- some sort of family reunion. The night before we were supposed to leave my mom took all of the cousins on a small hike. I remember singing: "when the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie ... that's amore!" to the full moon as we crossed a bridge. We all loved it. The next morning we were packing up to leave and we couldn't find Greg. My parents were frantic -- they had to look for close to two hours before they found him. He was sitting on the same bridge we passed the night before. Greg has always been the silent curious one ...
