The Lowe's family tailor stopped in the middle of the woods. The drivers side
door opened and an middle thirty year old man stepped out. He stretched his
back and sighed long and deep. "Well gang here we are. My favorite camping
site that I used to go with my father."

The passenger side door opened the man's wife who also is mid thirty's
stepped out and also stretched her back. "Hmm why has it taken you so long to
bring us here hmm Jim?"

"Yea dad. Why did you have to wait until I am fourteen to bring me here
huh?" and young teenage boy grumbled as he stepped out from behind the drivers
side.

"Please Griffin; why ruin an perfectly nice spot with an squalling baby."
The door behind the passenger side opened and an thirteen year old girl
stepped out.

"Ok everyone I want everyone to take the time to be quiet stretch and get in
better moods please." Jim said looking back on his family.

"Sorry Jim. You are right." The girl looked over at Griffin and smiled
softy "Sorry Griff."

"Yea that's ok Caitlin." Griffin smiled back at Caitlin.

They both obeyed Jim and stretched and kept their mouths shut for an few
minutes.

The woman looked over at her husband and smiled an soft private smile. She
looked back at her son and her niece and laughed softly inside herself. She
turned her face back to face forward and relaxed for the first time in hours.

"Hey Dori?" Dori heard from behind her.

Dori turned and saw Caitlin "yes Caitlin."

"Is it safe to talk and move about yet." Caitlin looked over at Jim.

Jim burst out laughing.

"You can take that as an yes." Dori said giggling along with her husband.

Griffin and Caitlin bursted out laughing along with the adults.



**********



Jim rubbed his hands together and said "Griffin you are in charge of showing Caitlin the ropes of camping." He smiled at his only son.



"Sure no problem Dad." Griffin smiled back at his father. He looked over at his cousin. "Come on Cait let me show you how to put up an tent." He grabbed his and his cousin's tent from the trunk of the tailor.



Caitlin sighed deeply and put on her headphones and pushed play and loud music blared from the headphones.



"CAITLIN!" Dori shouted. She sighed deeply and went over to her second cousin and pulled the headphones off of Caitlin's ears.



"HEY!" Caitlin shouted as she swung around ready to fight.



"Hey Caitlin it's only me." Dori stepped backward and put up her hands.



"Sorry Dori. But never do that again." Caitlin stepped back and loosed her nerves. "I hate it when people do that."



Dori stepped back over to Caitlin and put her arm across her shoulder and squeezed gently "I know sweaty. I'm sorry for starting you like that."



Caitlin shrugged her shoulder. She didn't want to let Dori know that she liked having her arm across her shoulders. *Just how my mom used to calm me down.* She wasn't ready for the Lowe's to know that she was getting comfortable with them. *Just in case if something happens to make me go packing.*



"Come on Caitlin let's go put up the tents." Griffin said standing off somewhat. He wanted to get all the grudge work done so that he could go off somewhere and write.



"Coming." Caitlin said as she shrugged from Dori's hand and walked over to her cousin.



"We will join you in an few minutes." Jim said as he began to get oragianed at the tailor's door.



Dori watched her son and second cousin walk off to set up camp. She went to join her husband at the tailor.
