it was an early morning for some as some of the guys decided to hit the road early and set up camp before everyone else got there.
"Rise and Shine boys! Its a good morning to do some work" Glenn said waking up Josh and Joel who were sleeping on the couches the night before.
"ugh! What time is it?" Joel asked in a croaky voice
"its 5:30am and we are leaving in about half an hour, so get up have a some breaky and lets hit the road" Glenn said walking off
Joel rolled over and stared at the roof.
"i dread camping trips" Joel said
Josh sat up from the other couch and looked at Joel
"think about it this way, when your gone from a week, you have no worries of the world, just some awesome water, the music of mother nature and those fucking mozzies" Josh said with Glee
"i would rather play my music than listen to mother nature" Joel said disappointted that he has to go camping
"well dont you put a downer on things, can you pass me my pants" Josh said jumping of the couch in his boxers
Joel throws Josh is pants and heads into the kitchen were he makes himself some toast, makes Josh and himself a coffee and they both sat by the fire until it was time to go.
"so Josh?" Joel said
"yes i believe that is my name, could be wrong tho" Josh replied
" what are you going to do about Alex?" Joel asked with a smile
"oh shit! i totally forgot she was going to be there! uh, she has been texting me like non stop since she found out i was going with you guys! she is like freaking me out, i think ill just try my best to avoid her as much as possible, ill just hang with Tamara and she will hopefully get the message" Josh said trying to convince himself he wasnt going to be annoyed while he was camping
"hahaha, your fucked Josh, hang on wait? Tamara? wait a second do you and my cousin have something going on?!" Joel asked knowing how close the two of them have been since the last camping trip
"Me and Tamara? No way, just friends and she is 4 years younger than me and she is your cousin! jeez Who do you think i am" Josh said trying to make a point
"exactly, i know who you are haha" Joel said with a smirk.
from the front yard we could hear the cars starting, Glenn then opened the front door.
"come on boys! lets head out, im taking my Car, Joel your father is taking his and yourself and Josh will go in yours, just follow us and we will be there in about 3 hours, Lets Go!" Glenn said
