Simon...Simon was regretting his decision in agreeing to the camping trip. He had thought they meant 'Car Camping'....not hiking deep into the woods, carrying all your gear, sleeping in a tent! He felt so unprepared and was glad every time they took a break, setting his pack down, rubbing his sore shoulders. He seemed to be the only one struggling with the physical effort, but he wasn't a particularly big guy. He was quite the opposite, really - slim and slender, he did work out but was apparently not as fit as he thought he was!<br/>
<br/>
It took him a full 10 minutes to get up once they reached the campsite. He had flopped down on the grassy knoll and just laid there, resting against his pack, drinking from his canteen, recovering from the exertion. He had fumbled with the poles of his tent, needing some additional help to make it all come together, and he had been half tempted to crawl right into the tent and call it a night right then, but didn't want to embarrass his daughter.<br/>
<br/>
The cold bears and filling meal rejuvenated him, picking him up as he replenished his energy stores, but he was more than eager to get some shut eye as the cold night descended around them. He didn't think much of the proposition to switch up who shared a tent - he was close to his daughter, yes, but they had never shared  a bed which essentially was going to happen with the tent situation. <br/>
<br/>
He removed his dirty clothes and boots, pulling on a clean t-shirt to sleep in, before he crawled into his tent. His air mattress was extra thick and he let out a soft sigh as its padded comfort embraced his body. Of course, tents were not insulated, so he quickly got into his sleeping bag as he waited to see who would join him.</span>
