6/23/11 Rest day in the Black Hills (LeAnn)


Woke up to a beautiful sun glowing across all the treetops. Finished eating and decided to go down to the lake to pump water and wash clothes. Washing clothes by hand is much more involved than one would think. Wash twice, rinse twice, ring out water three times, hang to dry. I enjoy the simple tasks of living, it really helps me to appreciate everything so much more now, but I don't plan on going back to the easier way any time soon. Walked back up the steep hill to our campsite, lounged, ate dinner, played cards threw pine cones at eachother. After dinner we explored the top of the hill we were staying at and found the stalks of the mullin plant to be the perfect fighting swords. We fought for a while and enjoyed the scenery. Then back down the hill to camp and had peanut butter sandwiches for a late night snack.
