Camp 98
Home Up We are Family... Camp 98 Summer 98

 

Camp 98...more like Cabin 98.  We arrive at the cabin on a beautiful, bright and sunny day.  We did not expect it to be such a nice weekend but Mother Nature was gracious this May Long weekend.  As we drive up to the cabin,image05.jpg (148948 bytes) image04.jpg (204413 bytes) image01.jpg (219565 bytes) I begin to notice that my truck is starting to sink as though I were in quicksand.  What a way to start the weekend, stuck image06.jpg (144100 bytes) in saturated land.  I guess having rained the past week the rain water had no where to go.  Guests soon arrive image07.jpg (231547 bytes) and were warned about the conditions.  We had several ideas about getting the trucks out but none worked image08.jpg (233516 bytes).  Eventually the rest of the guests came and with all our manpower and other vehicles we got ours out and left out to dry on the highwayimage20.jpg (176498 bytes)Luckily one of our guests had an eye for dry deadwood, no, not her significant other Dn1.jpg (130894 bytes).  We managed to build a fire image12.jpg (186753 bytes) and in case the fire got out of hand we had this handpump image21.jpg (179888 bytes), which didn't work.  Wiener roast, yahoo! image15.jpg (209780 bytes) image14.jpg (246986 bytes) Someone had the craving for popcorn.  JiffyPop was pulled out and slapped onto the bar-b-q image15a.jpg (151709 bytes), after several hours they finally gave up and threw it into the fire image16a.jpg (149546 bytes).    The fire dance was lead by this fine gentleman image19.jpg (98507 bytes) and behold our fire had grown image14a.jpg (152946 bytes). The weekend was filled with music,image09.jpg (131846 bytes) laughter image07a.jpg (131484 bytes), and good friends image08a.jpg (123295 bytes).  Near the nights end there was a line up at the facility.  This dude was asked to pick up the pace image16.jpg (148279 bytes).  Others could not wait image04a.jpg (197605 bytes).   Spring is just around the corner and it looks like another excursion to the cabin will be made.  Cabin 99!!
