Word From The Forest

Well, it's difficult to put pictures on while we're up here, but I'll share a couple. One of the themes of this camping trip has been passing the torch to the younger generation. The Mister can't hunker for long periods of time fixing things and his back doesn't like hauling heavy loads. I can't lug the water around like I used to, nor the ice chests when they are full. So we think it's time for the younger set to take over and eventually we will just sit and sip iced tea and read books while they serve us. Or something like that. Here is our oldest doing oven duty:




The notable thing about this oven is that the temperature is regulated by turning burners on and off or opening the door if you get in a pinch. We made 4 cakes to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries this year... That's a lot of door-opening.

Serving 60-plus people requires a few dishes, and they need to fit back in their receptacle, so here is a shot of Bias For Action's youngest tackling the plate-sorting:



We lost our campfire privileges last night, but we were grateful to get campfires and s'mores for half our time here.

More when we get back and I don't have to write so fast (short battery life on my computer).
