You can see that the years have NOT been kind to I. C’est la vie.
I never thought I will live to be 68. I have now outlived my adoptive mother by 6-years.
These were taken earlier this week when I was in ‘Shenandoah‘. The room had a big mirror & as some of you know I can’t resist. Plus, I get complaints that I don’t post many pictures of myself. Well this lot should take care of it.

First & foremost, I am NOT going camping; I have NEVER gone camping & I never plan to go camping. Is that clear? As I have often stated, staying at a $70/night, 2-star motel is as close to camping that I will ever get. Don’t get me wrong. I love the outdoors & wilderness. I spend at least 2.5-hours, most days (i.e., like 98% of the year) outside in ‘the sticks’. I just have NO desire to sleep in other than a traditional bed & not have access to a proper bathroom.
I am, however, going to be spending 4-nights in a wooden cabin in Shenandoah National Park this coming week. This cabin does not have a refrigerator. I do not think many of the rooms in Shenandoah have refrigerators — whether it be at ‘Skyland‘ or ‘Big Meadows‘. Thus, your traditional freezer pack is of little use after day one. There is no way to freeze it again.
You have to rely on ice — either from a machine or from a store.
Yes, we have all done that. Well, this time around I am going to put the ice in plastic bottles with screw tops. That, in theory, will minimize water leakage as the ice melts. Plus, heading out, i.e., Day 1, I have put water in the bottles & put them in the freezer. So, I will not have to use ice cubes. I already have a freezer pack.
Just an idea. I am sure others have been doing this for year. Just wanted to make sure you gave this some thought.
