Crash Bandicoot 2 - Hangin' Out:

"Yep...another sewer level. Honestly, I don't have much to say. Most of these levels tend to have the same enemies and traps, and do some changes based on that. It's not a bad thing, but don't expect much variety, in terms of visuals."

Whereas our second day was an adventure, our third day, yesterday, was mostly logistics.

Logistics?

Yeah. After waking up a quarter after eight, we turned our attention to our campervan that seemed to be running harder than it needed to while we were driving city streets, navigating arterials, pulling into parking lots. So I called the campervan people a call and, after they spoke with Kimmer about specifics, called us back after talking with one of their mechanics, then called us again after figuring out some logistics of their own, they got a replacement campervan ready and sent someone down to us to make the swap on our end. Which was really really nice and not just a little bit convenient as hell.

Our original campervan, by the way, was called "Snapshot". Our replacement, the one in which we're driving around now, is called Bubbliscious. I'm not sure that's the best name for it. For sure the graphic design wrapped around the campervan is both three dimensional and colorful. There's nothing about it, though, that looks like or evokes bubbles. To us, it looks like brain synapses.

Either way, we now had a perfectly running vehicle for our camping travels by 11AM.

To trial it out, though, we ran some local errands, hitting the Goodwill from the previous day and then the GW Boutique next door. We were there at the Goodwills for about a half hour before running across the street again to Sprouts.

Sprouts was a bust so we hit the Salvation Army just down the street where we hit the jackpot with, right off the bat a Kimmer green carry-on roller bag she'd been looking for, some suwheet! clothes Kimmer'd also been looking for, and then another pillow for me. :-)

After that, we were on our way back to the homestead but I missed our turn so we continued to Starbucks instead for coffee 'n latte.

So we're there killing some time with business talk and profession talk when the barista goes

"I have a question."

We turn ourselves towards her.

"Yes?"

Then she says

"Would you like a chocolate croissant?"

To which Kimmer says

"I wouldn't but my husband would."

Oh you BET her husband would. Which is how I ended up with a chocolate croissant, heated, and on the house.

Man, you gotta love moments like that. :-)

By the time we wrap that up, we're back at the homestead by two when Kimmer starts baking, I grab a shower and start packing, and her cousin 'n nephew finish their preparations and hit the road maybe quarter to three/three o'clock while we sit down to absolutely, positively, watch with rapt attention the final episode of The Residence in which All Is Explained.

We wrap that expience by 3:30 and, ten minutes later, start loading our campervan, grabbing Kimmer's nephew's forgotten pillow in the process.

Four-thirty we're on the road after scoring batteries at The Dollar Tree for our Uno Attack! game machine and forty-five minutes later we're pulling into campsite 58, our home for the next three nights.

Her cousin already has his camper situated and has a burgers on the grill well under way to which we add a Trader Joe's Mediterranean salad, we each grab our own drinks stashed for some time in a cooler and BAM. We're having dinner above the Pacific Ocean.

What's interesting about the experience is that I'm not cold. It's an overcast day with some lingering fog. There's a slight breeze coming off the Pacific. The temp's something like 58 and we're all comfortable. If this was the Pacific Northwest we'd be miserable next to Puget Sound.

But here?

It's lovely. Peaceful.

Most importantly... NOT cold.

After dinner, we lounge in the van, eventally Kimmer's nephew joining us. Seven-thirty the three of us head out in the campervan for a quick trip to Trader Joe's where, among other thins, we score some ice cream and stroop waffels for dessert.

By the way, we WILL have to finish the icecream the same night 'cause we don't have anything that'll keep it straight-up frozen any longer than that.

So there we are, enjoying ice cream and stroop waffels in the campervan while I throw on Shrinking Season 2.

Why?

Kimmer's nephew had made us fans of Season 1 but hadn't gotten around to Season 2 himself. So we set into Season 2 Episdoe 1 immediately. :-)

By 9:30 we're done, he heads off to bed, Kimmer sets up the campervan so that the middle section's now a bedroom with our double bed and comfy blankets, nothing but the Pacific and the occasional sounds of children nearby playing games in their tent. Above in the sky we can see the full moon, only a sliver of which is bathed in light, the rest of which is black but something less black than the sky. Seeing that with my own eyes I can imagine I'm actually seeing the dark side of the moon. Of course that's not true... but it's a seriously cool look for the moon.

Then ten o'clock rolls around and we're cozied in bed.

Done for the day.

:-)

I could not explain to you why this bit from one of Tango’s recent Hungry Hermits streams got me so bad; I think I was tabbed out and zoned back in to hear Skizz’s indignant “‘I, am special” and then I must have blacked out and woken up with this comic fully sketched out

Crash Bandicoot 2: N.Sane Trilogy - Hangin' Out:

"Another sewer level and this one isn't that fun, specially because you are going to deal with a lot of unkillable enemies...and I hate it. It's an ok level, but there are better ones of this theme."
