Future Apocalypse

Why an Apocalypse? Only because the impending momentous event coincides with the definition of an Apocalypse,

Def.  1.a prophetic revelation, especially concerning a cataclysm in which the forces of good permanently triumph over the forces of evil.
2.any revelation or prophecy.
3.any universal or widespread destruction or disaster.

As you can see, the definitions focus on "revelation", "good and evil" and "destruction and disaster".
All of the above are what will, quite possibly, define my family's up and coming camping trip.
You may notice that I've use the word "Apocalypse" quite often, so far. "Why?" you ask. Only because I love the way the word Apocalypse rolls off my tongue, full of menace and impending doom, sending shivers down my spine.

Here are some of the elements that may portend the potential Apocalypse.
1. Me. A decrepit old man with a sharp tongue and a quick temper. (I like the word "tongue, too, only because I can spell it.)
2. My long suffering wife. A lovely, but fairly naive woman, whose only prior camping experience can be described as "glamping", complete with elevated tents, bunks to sleep on, hot and cold running water, showers and a flushing toilet.
3. My 30 something nephew. Great with a computer, born with a silver spoon in his mouth and a camping virgin.
4. Our two dogs. A snoring Labrador and a foul farting Blue Heeler.
5. A campsite, exposed to the elements with the only facility being a drop toilet.
6. A brand new 12 man tent, purchased 3 years ago and still in its original bag, still unopened and unused. We will, hopefully, be erecting the said tent for the first time in forecast 35 kph winds. Apocalypse, Apocalypse, Apocalypse!
7. No camp beds. Just sleeping bags on the floor of the tent.
8. No showers for three days.
9. All meals to be cooked on a single gas ring cooker, outside the tent, in the open.
10. No drinkable water. We have to take our own.
11. Cool weather forecast. Night time temperatures will be less than 10C.
12. Other unforeseen problems that will undoubtedly occur in the face of the impending      Apocalypse.

That is my prophesy. Should we survive the experience, I'll post it on here. If you don't see another post by mid March, say a prayer, however, I fear it will be too late.

Apocalypse, Apocalypse, Apocalypse!
