  • So this absolutely happened yesterday... Even on a leash there is not containing the Desdemona monster. . I made her let it go. It ran away with a sore butt and legends of the great beast that patrols the human places. . . . . . . . . . . . #cat #cats #catsofinstagram #catsrule #instacat #huntingcat #catmonster #catcatch #cats_of_instagram #catstagram #cats🐱 #desdemona #thehunter

  • Why yes, this is a perfectly toasted, apple filled "Pudgy" pie with cinammon swirl bread. Camping carbs don't count. Ever. . . . . . . . . . . . . #camping #camp #food #campfood #campfoodporn #pudgypies #pudgypie

  • Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, a Man set off for the wilds. He did not know it at the time, but adventure and mystery awaited him. That first night he was greeted by the constant, meddling presence of the capricious god of Rain. . The Man managed to set up his meager camp to the cold, consistent rhythm of Rain’s music, and was even able to briefly introduce Fire to the night, before Rain got angry and snuffed her out. . Upon waking, the man saw that Rain had fled and gave the Sun its due. The Sun greeted the Man with narcissistic excitement, shining its golden beauty on mirror waters, bathing prideful in its reflection. . The Man returned to camp to call again upon the Fire, and in doing so the Fire birthed, from its smoke, some sprightly creature of it’s flames! This creature was sullen at first and it demanded nourishment to fuel its burning. . So feed it the Man did. He wandered long and far and returned with breads baked in the glowing hearth’s of Heaven. Phoenix eggs, freshly laid and smoldering still in the fires of its not yet return. Slices of tender meat carved carefully from washed ashore remnants of the Erymanthian boar. . Freshly fed, this flame-bidden creature made friends with its enemy the Waters, and cast a line to and fro, from the greenest river canopies to the bluest stretches of lake, trying to catch that thing of dreams that eludes all creatures of creation; Hope. . Although Hope was not caught that day, a greater thing was seized. The Man made friends with that Fire sprite. And as the sun reached out its hands to take the sprite back home, the Man grabbed hold to wander with, because he never again wanted to adventure without his companion born in flame. . The End. . . . . #camping #camp #adventure #adventuretime #adventurer #onceuponatime #rain #rainycamping #rainadventure #fishing #river #fatherandson #fathersoncampout #fatherandsonbonding #campfire #water #river #lake #campfood #wilds #storytime
  • 40 fucking years... Ugh... Yeah... So, I don't know how, but I made it 40 years. And even more unlikely, I managed to make it there in decent shape. Through all the hurt I put this body through, I can't believe it made it at all. I hear it's all down hill from here, which works for me, because I have been pushing the boulder up the hill long enough. I'm ready to watch it roll down the other side. At least I don't have to be stuck in the gravity of 40 for long, because me turning 40 today means the boy turns 10 today. Double digits. What the hell happened to the last ten years? Anyway, here's to hoping I make it 40 more and to him making it 100 more. I don't know what it's going to look like but I imagine it will be interesting. . . . . . . . . . . #40 #happybirthday #whathappened #feelingold #downhillfromhere
