Girls Camp

Jennilyn, Stewart, and Suzanna left for Utah on Sunday afternoon, a few weeks back. Sam left for Scout camp a couple of hours later. Then on Tuesday morning, Roxie Jane went to YW Girls Camp. Her first!

That night, I came home from work to an empty house. I grouted the sink, made a pizza, and played Lord of the Rings Online. That's a party night in my book.

But the next day, I left work and drove directly to the Girls Camp to spend the night. There are always supposed to be two adult men in the camp in case any priesthood responsibilities are needed addressed. Mostly, I just walked around and helped out.


Roxie Jane has a GREAT time.


I got asked to build three fires in 24 hours. I think I need to give Roxie Jane the official Stewart tutorial on how to build a fire.

This may have been the best fire I ever built.  Hardly any smoke at all.  Big, by the time I was done, almost six feet across.  Whitish-pink at the center, really hot.  And it burned for almost three hours.

When I am alone, service makes the time pass quicker until Jennilyn can come back.
