THIS CAMPOUT

" Might be the worst ... but it might be the best "

(said a good sister in Christ as she put up her tent on Saturday in the rain)

Rex Hudson strides over to his lawn chair as the Wednesday evening services begin with songs led by Steve Finney.

Kevin F., the 402nd camper in attendance. Things were brighter when he arrived.

SAY,

What do little boys like to do when camping?

Well Calvin starts diggin' while

Moses takes a crack at sweeping nature's carpet.

"O.K. ... Ready? SWITCH!"

But Kids gotta have a place of their own ...

So LRH came to the rescue, sparked by an idea from Mahalaleel and with the aid of CCT - She put together this Kiddie Corral which was a big hit and major conversation starter all week long. The kids thoroughly enjoyed time spent in its cozy confines.
"More fun, less dirt"

Jason, Wendy, Emerald, Grace, Eric, Kevin and Sam surround the wall.

Moses, Calvin, LRH, Emerald, Wendy & Jason enjoy the corral.

"I'm still not sure how to play this thing"

"Mmm hmmm"

MEANWHILE ... Even more important activities

FOOD

Campers gotta eat ...

Two screen tents from Mellowmorton provide kitchen and dining elegance for the compound.

Julie and Sam - after lunch thoughts.

Almarusa join us for a noonday repast.

Look closely and you will see Adam Norris.

"I just knew I would enjoy this lunch!"

The One who really shined all week ....

EMERALD !!!

Verity, Emerald, and GMA LRH

Emerald relaxes with Julie

Looking for her thumb with Aunt W

"Say, this campin' business is alright!"

"Did you just pinch me, Uncle Jason?"

"Grandpa, Is that really Calvin Spencer coming over here?"

S'MORE HAPPY CAMPERS

Vee and Candace in campin' lightin'

"Aaaaah, Sisters"

A perennial Campout favorite - Capri Sun!

IS IT REFRESHING????

OH YEAHHHH!!

Excellent postage! You have such nice pictures! Nobody looks that dirty. Emerald is so cute, and I'm not biased at all :)

Thanks brother Tom! I think we're going to have to indoctrinate your wife into the Green River club......hard to beleive she's never heard of it.......I guess it just proves her youthfulness in that it was before her time.

great pictures! i especially like the shoveling/sweeping duo of calvin and moses. i know both of their parents probably can't wait for them to be able to help with "big" jobs at home. it looks like the capri sun girls had a good time at camp this year!

great pics, thanks for sharing. It was nice to see you last week. I especially like it when we pulled in Saturday afternoon and one of the first things we noticed was you with your rain gear on and your grandson (I think) on your shoulders walking around the campground.

yes, thanks for sharing the Eminence pics, especially for those who couldn't make it! I'm trying to work it out for next year, but that's still a year away. Mom and Dad ended up getting a lodge room, so maybe that will bring more incentive too. (not that I need any) Thanks for the list by the way. I really appreciate your effort. I think we may have found a winner!

Was the kid corral on the list of "Modern Wonders of the World?" I would have voted for it.

Yeah, Tommy! Great pictures and comments besides. Sure missed being there at the camp out. It rained hard in Eminence but it was DRY in Oregon. (wha..?)
