BABBLERS PRESS - Nothing helps beat stress like leaving the creature comforts of home to spend time enduring hardship in the woods. At least, that's the philosophy of one local family who are itching to get closer to nature after a rough winter of snuggling up in their heated suburban bungalow.
"It will be so nice to get away from our comfy beds, indoor plumbing and home cooked meals," said the father. "And the kids are really excited about getting their faces out of screens for a few days, you know, a break from their iPhones, iPads, iPods, basically anything that begins with i." The father added that the kids can't wait to start singing old songs around a camp fire while "trying to keep the bugs from sucking blood from their bodies." "Our children are not getting any younger," he said. "Who knows, this may be the last chance we have to see them experience the thrill of running away from a bear while screaming their heads off. Such an experience would also help them develop their prayer language." The mother said she's especially excited about finding the right tree to use the bathroom behind, adding that the kids are already preparing to play their favourite camping game called "What was that?" "When we're all zipped up in our sleeping bags for the night it's inevitable that one of the kids will start hearing sounds," she explained. "When they hear a sound they say 'What was that?" and then the rest of us start guessing. 'Was it a bear? A snake? A drunken fellow camper stumbling upon our camp site? Or was it a rat trying to nibble its way through the side of the tent to get at our food?' It's so much fun and it helps us sleep better." Meanwhile, the mother said the worst part of camping is when they have to return home to the reality of having "everything at your fingertips."
