The party continued at a different campsite and again well into the night. Beginning to lose my patience with Commerce Day. The woman camping next to us, a solo traveler from Australia, also lost her patience and together we confronted the party (loud music, crazy screaming and for some reason animal noises like that of a pig being slaughtered) around 1 AM. In no particular order they were 1) young 2) adamant about explaining that this was a three day holiday 3) blind drunk and 4) very loudly apologetic. We left satisfied that moving forward they would be a bit more considerate. And they continued the party for another hour.

It was our last night camping which meant a sad goodbye to some of our favorite, but yet utterly useless things accumulated over the past month. Goodbye two pillows from IKEA. Not the best of pillows but at least there was no assembly required. Goodbye also to the big lentil soup in a box idea. It just never came to be. A fond farewell also to the oversized insulated box thing that did not successfully hold ice. We were better for knowing you but are even better now without your cumbersome bulk.
