[spending a night outside was fun!]

Last night I camped out in my parents' yard(by the pool, in fact) so I could watch the lunar eclipse. I was worried about a) missing it and b) not being warm enough. Neither of those two things were a problem-I had a air bed which I put a blanket on top of, then a comforter,then another blanket.And I was wearing pajama pants. It was plenty cold last night,though!

I slept in a tent-a kids' pop up tent-it was what I could find at short notice but it worked fine!

As far as being able to wake up in time goes..I set the alarm on my iPhone for 2 a.m. Woke up at 2 a.m. and nothing.Set it for 4 a.m. and by then it had definitely started. So I did get to see the eclipse which I was VERY pleased with.

Now though, I want to go camping. Proper camping, like at the campground. I wouldn't call what I did  this morning camping,because it wasn't really roughing it-I had easy access to a bathroom, for example.

I just think that sometimes you have to go out of your comfort zone and try something new, and that's exactly what I did.
