7 Teens/tweens, 2 Adults, 1 Island, No Ferries…our first camping experience!

August 14, 2024August 14, 2024momonthegoinholytoledo

I never understood it, shoot, if I’m being honest, I thought they were all crazy. What kind of a person volunteers to leave their climate-controlled home with a private bathroom, a fully stocked fridge, freezer, wifi, and all the modern-day accommodations they work so hard to provide their family and go live in the great outdoors for a week? To me that sounded like pure nonsense, borderline insanity. Vacations should require less work, not more. Why pack towels, air mattresses, sheets, pots, pans, coolers, etc.? Why not save yourself time, energy, and bug bites and just stay home? After an impromptu extended stay on an island with 7 tweens/teens, one brutal storm, dirty underwear, greasy hair, and legs you could play connect-the-bug bites on I think I finally get it. I drank the Kool-Aid. What’s even more shocking, is I miss it, there, I said it. But I’m getting ahead of myself, let me start from the beginning.

Butterflies delicately dancing along a sea of vibrant blossoms, water whispering, anticipation escalating with each bend along the path, & the forest gifting a preverbal warm hug! Holden Arboretum is a retreat from the worries of life. Holden Arboretum is a safe haven, a reminder that there is endless and abundant beauty in this world, it’s a place where your soul can relax and your inner child can play. And for us it was the perfect place to spend a milestone birthday, the big 10! It was the Imaginative Outdoor Fairy Land and Doors exhibit that initially piqued the interest of our birthday girl but the Canopy Walk was the frosting, and Emergent Tower the sprinkles on the cake!
