last sunday thucdan took connor tq and i out to have seafood boil as a reward for my outstanding grades this semester. it was delicious.
tq and i also had to bring our overnight bags because afterwards, thucdan took us to tastea which was where we were going to meet my nana and pappy to go stay with them for a week. it was smooth transaction as we made our way to our nana’s. that evening, we had something for dinner…i don’t remember what it was. i don’t think it was anything crazy because on monday we were going to be leaving to go camping so there wasn’t much food in the house. tq and i always sleep in the office when we’re at our nana’s. there’s one makeshift bed/chair/thingy and an air mattress. tq took the air mattress, which was arguably more comfortable because that chair/bed/thing kinda hurts my back and it’s real skinny and not as close to the ground as the air mattress so i nearly fall off of it a lot.
the next morning my grandparents woke up super early to finalize everything and get all the stuff into the trailer/truck. nana woke me and tq up a little bit before we left. i packed up our things quickly and we piled into the backseat of the truck with zoe, that dumb old deaf dog that tq hates/loves. it’s especially funny when tq will tell zoe she smells and that she’s dumb and old, but then kiss her and cuddle her and shower her in affection. it’s also our first camping trip without trip so that was a little somber.
it was pretty early in the morning for tq and i so we just slept the whole way up the mountain. well, i slept. tq was awake when we hit payson and actually starting advancing up the mountain. apparently we hit some huge traffic going up, and we got delayed by 30 minutes, but i wouldn’t know because i was asleep!
every time we go camping, we stay at canyon point, it’s this pretty nice campground with electricity and water and publice bathrooms and restrooms so pretty luxurious and glorious. it doesn’t take long for us to set up the trailer and get settled in at our spot. nana makes us sandwiches EVERY lunch. they’re pretty scrumptious. tq and i also got to choose chips from walmart from our stop in payson we also have those to ration out throughout the week along with 30 caprisuns. first day was a lot of chilling and setting up the hammock and our decorative ribbon. we also met some of our grandparents’ friends who were also up camping near our spot.
tq and i sleep on this second makeshift bed in the trailer. it’s the tiny dining table with cushions and a comforter on top. it’s pretty okay except for the fact that thucquyen has the biggest butt a 13 year old could ever harness and it’s always up in my space, even more so in the trailer.
