We came. We camped. We conquered.<\/p>\n

Drew & I had the privilege to go on the Father & Son campout at the new Girl’s Camp site. Sorry Sisters, it isn’t quite the Hilton yet, but we did get the pine\u00a0cone toilet paper stocked\u00a0and bear-breath hair dryers installed…<\/p>\n

\"Men<\/p>\n

First step:\u00a0Construct our humble abode. I was thrilled at the discovery of a campsite that had been “finished” that no one had called dibs on. Sand might be firm, but it’s a lot softer than rocks!<\/p>\n

\"Roughing<\/p>\n

Second step: Explore! We found plenty of “evidence” from elk and moose, but were unsuccessful in our quest to track the bear.<\/p>\n

\"outdoor<\/p>\n

Third: I will teach you an important lesson in history Drew. You see, the red man makes a small fire and sits very close. The white man makes a big fire and sits far away. Which kind of fire do you want to make? That’s what I thought…<\/p>\n

\"cold\"<\/p>\n

Here be Fire King and his sidekick Flame Boy, having labored much in the log moving specialty.<\/p>\n

\"Fire<\/p>\n

Finally my patience won out and I was able to photograph this rare Pine Monkey searching for his friends during hide & seek.<\/p>\n

\"monkey\"<\/p>\n

That’s enough dirt for one weekend. Seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeya!<\/p>\n
