She wasn't about to bring her five-month-old daughter into the Forest of Dean camping, though, which had been Robert's crazy idea. She knew she'd be safer back at home with her mother, even though she had the sneaking suspicion Robert wasn't entirely comfortable having his mother-in-law in their house by herself, whether or not it was logical or not.

She kept reminding herself that her mother would contact them if something went wrong, and that she was trustworthy, having raised four children (five including her cousin), not to mention helping Jonathan and Alyssa with their three kids. But for once she was having a hard time keeping her brain logical, especially since it involved her daughter. And she was going to get to see Lima again, which was exciting since she hadn't really gotten to see her slightly older friend since almost a year earlier and a lot of things had changed since then. She'd sent a few owls, but it wasn't the same.

Coming into a clearing, she stopped near the edge as she saw Lima there, with several others, including a young girl, and let a hand come up to finger the strap of her backpack. She didn't know why she was nervous, but there it was. And she had a feeling she had a while before Robert caught up.
Robert walked through the forest laden down with camping gear that Liz had oh so kindly left him to carry when he groaned as he noticed it was going up hill. Pulling all the straps towards his body he sighed and made his way up the hill. He was just lucky he had to stay in shape... As he reached the top he looked down and sighed as it went down again. Why can't it just be straight? Groaning he carefully made his way down the hill. About half way down his foot got caught in a root and he tripped causing him to fall, rolling down the rest of the way. "Bloody hell!" Standing up he brushed himself off to no avail really since there was dirt smudged on his face and his hair was a mess. Looking around he hoped he hadn't gotten lost somehow and continued walking toward what looked to be a clearing or something. As he neared he saw Liz standing there and he frowned, "Thanks for helping." He ran his free hand over his head and found some leaved there. Pulling them out he looked around, "Where am I supposed to put this stuff?"
