I was going to respond to the camping post but decided to start a new topic on the subject. My AH and I spent the weekend at an AA/Alanon camperama.  I just wanted to say that it was a great weekend!  A lot of laughs, games, and fellowship. We had an open meeting on Saturday night around the campfire and it was a great meeting. The topic was "fellowship". Lots of sharing on the subject. It was wonderful to be able to attend and feel totally comfortable with people I mostly didn't know. The only common goal was sobriety and fun. This is the second event that we have attended this year and plan to watch for the next one. My AH also had a wonderful weekend and it gives him strength to continue working on his sobriety. If any of you get a chance to attend one of these, I don't think you would be disappointed in the event. And with that "I'll pass."   Have a great day!
