We're Dating Again!

Wow! So we stop watching media and guess what? We actually had a bona fide date! In the recent past, our date would have comprised of eating dinner in front of the TV while watching Stargate episodes or a movie that we rented. Every once in a while we'd actually go out... to the Drive-in. Sigh... I'm sorry to let all the fellas down. I've not been much of a stallion lately, that is until now!

Well, actually it was Shannon's idea, but I made it happen. She wanted to surprise me with a campfire at Mission Bay along with a little "camper's delight." So I went to Food 4 Less and got some firewood while she prepared some hot cocoa and our aluminum foil-wrapped chicken-carrot-potato masterpieces (camper's delight).

Once to Mission Bay, what did I find? No fire pits anywhere near any houses! They took them away! What's up with that???? So we trudged on (me carrying 40 lbs of firewood in the sand) back to the car and went to an area away from houses on the bay and found a campfire. After about 45 minutes the logs finally kept themselves alive. And after 30 minutes in the fire, our camper's delight was half-charred, yummy ;p.

Overall it was a fun night. We finished with some Mexican food from the taco shop across from the Belmont RollerCoaster.
