Nero fiddling

Last night we debated whether Mrs. Weasley would leave us or stay one more night. I was leading the argument for her to stay. I love car camping with her, even though trail camping with Maddie is cool too. On the trail we throw up the tent and crash. With Susan it's lovely with good company, campfires, cold beer and hot food (we don't carry a stove on the trail). I suggested a short day and Susan could hike with us and Susan suggested we'd go into Big Bear after for some Starbucks and Wifi. Everyone thought this a fine plan. So only a 10 mile day, but lovely with lots of flowers. When you have a no hike day, it's called a "zero". And a short day is called a "Nero" for "near zero". Not really that, but at least a half day.
