Making the Best of a Bad Situation

Every summer, for the past ten years, my parents have dragged my brother and I on a camping trip to Michigan. We are not an especially close family, so it drives me crazy to have to pretend that we are all so close for one week every summer. I was going to put my foot down and refuse to go this year.

Things changed when my best friend informed me that there was going to be a huge Michigan larp gathering during the same week that my family was going to be there. I convinced my parents that Buddy had to come along and it was amazing.

It was so much better than the Ohio larp functions that we are used to attending. We both had the greatest time and I am actually looking forward to the family camping trip next year. I guess it is true that if you look hard enough, you can find the good in every situation.
