What's That You Say? You Say Today Is Saturday...? *

Well, you know it must have been a good vacation if you wake up and find you have lost track of a whole day! That is really what happened!
We were all nicely installed in our little campsite: tent up, mattress inflated, sheets and blankets and pillows all in place - no, no sleeping bags.
Dave was sitting at the picnic table, wearing cute glasses down on his nose, reading the paper and eating sunflower seeds (remember Jim Carey in Pet Detective?) I had moved over to sit in the car and read, as I had had enough of the sunflower seed routine.
Dave said "Chris, what day is it?" Easy. "It's Wednesday." "Well, this paper says it is Thursday..." How cool is that, we lost a whole day.
