Forgot the Camera!!

How on earth could I do it!!!??? I did though! This past weekend we went up to hubby’s aunt’s house. It’s amazing up there. She lives in Wausaukee. It’s a very VERY tiny town.  Her house is very much like living on Little House On The Prarie, only a bit worse. LOL Not in a bad way. I think Little House on The Prarie had a little more technology then she does!! She has no electricity. Granted she has no electricity bill, but none the less. She does has lights but everything is run off of gas, or her gas powered generator. It’s  amazing to see how she’s adapted.  She JUST got the generator by the way. She had too. She’s getting older and her  legs are no longer in a great condition to be walking the path down to the lake to bath in the lake. So she had to put in a shower. And they recently added a toliet and got rid of the outhouse too. It’s all very amazing to me.  She does have a refrigerator that runs on gas but no big freezer or anything.  She makes one trip into town a month for some basic groceries. We went out there because FIL and hubby had to put in a new sink for her in the kitchen. That went well. We had a nice dinner. Then we took the kids on a couple nature walks around the house on the property.  We also took them for some ATV rides. They totally  loved all of it. However, I forgot the camera for it all.  I am so disappointed. I never forget the camera, but I did this time!! I have no pictures and the kids totally had a  blast!! Nothing to scrap, nothing to save the memory but this blog entry!! I wonder if a mobile router would work up there for the laptop *snickers* I can bring the laptop, but once the battery dies I am SOL… her “outlets” are not regular plugs, they are converted because they run from generator and solar… so they are this special plug in. I told my hubby as hard as it was to be without technology,  power, a microwave, a toaster and all of that for a day, we must do it again. The kids had such a blast!! And this time, yes this time, I will remember the camera!!
