Traveling


Traveling is a great way to see and experience new things. It also holds a good amount of potential for comedy.

I honestly hope that everybody gets to travel at least once a year with friends, family, or, better yet, first time campers. Laurel and Hardy couldn't invent the amount of silly things that can happen on poorly prepared trips into the great outdoors. Every step needs proper attention. It begins with choosing the place to go to and knowing the weather that will be there. While that sounds as simple as a quick internet search, nothing compares to spending a night in warm weather equipment when Jack Frost is powdering the world in white.

If you have read "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy," you will know never to leave your home without a towel. It comes in handy for a wide variety of purposes. Mainly for drying off after a shower. Don't just write a packing list. Read and follow it too.

When traveling with kids, be advised that at least one will fall into a lake fully clothed. It's a law of nature.

Absolutely amazing animals can be seen while camping. Watching animals in their natural habitat compares to nothing that can be seen on TV.
The groundhogs in the campground had figured out that humans are quickly trained protectors from hawks. We got to witness a couple of groundhogs digging up from the ground right next to us and peacefully go about harvesting the grass into their burrow, with the whole human family standing watch and keeping the circling hawk away.
A fact of camping life is that all spaces are being shared with wild life. The picnic table top is not safe from fox droppings, as we found out in the morning. Good the next table over was free.
Frogs like wet habitats. The shower drain is such a place.

Have fun with the selection of short stories, a mad-lib, and an image about camping and traveling.

Ask & Answer

Last time I wrote the Comedy Newsletter, I highlighted items that have squirrels in it. This was the comment I got.

THANKFUL SONALI Library Class! Author Icon Ha ha! HOW did you come across that silly squirrel poem I wrote two years ago? *Laugh* AND - don't forget our very own resident squirrel darkin

I didn't forget about our resident squirrel, I figured everybody knows the Squirrel of Doom. *Smirk* How can anybody miss her? That reminds me that we have a whole wolfpack! Even one that howls into the blue nightsky now. Congrats to our resident wolf Lonewolf Author Icon on the fitting blue background.
