Here's my Companion pic to Alex's

I'll have to tweak the photos before I can upload them.

I'm still in the middle of uploading my previous photos. Hopefully I'll have some up by the end of the evening (she said, at 12:44am when the evening had long since ended)

To anyone out there fantasising that NirvanaMan wasn't straight, the bubble has been well and truly burst with a twin-cam roundy-roundy thing, heat extractor bits and a manyfold cover.

It was magical.

The sun roof gave us our first glimpse at a starlit sky. About halfway to our destination, NM pulled off the road so that we could stand outside the car and look above. No headlights; only a new moon to light the way - an awe inspiring marvel. Our modern world turned upside down: dark below and light above. A loveliness that takes the breath away.

And the speedy, gut-tingling ascent wasn't half bad either. Vroom and swish!

As for the rest, I'm reveling in sensory memory right now, and I wish to go back. Simply put: Want. More. Camp. Swank.

I echo Chris when I say that I will not be shortening my stay next time. This kind of blissful escape deserves longevity.

You macerate my raisin soul.

Camp Swank, you were glorious.

Please provide the address of Stellar J. Smorgasm...she sounds perfect for Jerry Springer.
