Scout Camp!!


Ok this, is my sorry dog... Cause I havn't posted in a long time I am saying sorry.... Anyhow I have a new and exciting story. Unfortunately I don't have a camera yet so I wasn't able to take take any pictures from the camp but, I hope that I am a good enough story teller. So usually i am in a bad mode when I find out we have to go to a scout camp. Cause that means my Friday and part of my Saturday is taken up because I have scouts.... I know most of you are laughing saying that I have enough time already. But I love my weekends and always look forward to them. Anyhow, we went up to Kamas (or how ever you spell it) which was about an hour drive. Me and Alex rode together with Kelley in his truck. I don't know if many of you have seen Kelley's truck but there is about this much room " " for me and Alex to sit. And Kelley himself is a very big man so that was an very very very akward drive up to Kamas. Anyhow, we arrive and we didn't really have anything planned we were going to do! So we get out and get our stuff set up in the little pavilion. OH, and we are on private property we call it Earl's Acres because our nieghboors (ugh I can't spell today) ,the Earls, owns that property and let us come up there and camp. Which is why there is a pavilion there. Well we put down the walls of the pavilion but, there is 2 walls that we couldn't put down. So we decided it won't matter that much so we set are packs down. Well we mess around for 2 hours than we head to the "little" garage they have that has the stove in it, a barbecue, 4 four wheelers, a table, a television, and seats around the stove. Well..... Luckily good old Kelley and his son ,Kc, are hunters and they had some wonderful juicy deer meat that hungry little scouts like to eat. So, Alex is in charge of cooking the deer meet and he's very paranoid about getting burned on the grill. It made me laugh cause he freaked out the whole time looking like someone that was looking at a bomb thinking they wanted to grab but they were too scared to. If that makes any sense ,which it probably doesn't. Well we ate the deer meat with a side dish of maccoroni (or however you spell it) salad. After that we went to the pavilion and did many more random crazy things. Than simply we decided to strip down and go in our sleeping bags. I don't know about you guys but an open pavilion and being one of the smallest ones there isn't very encouraging. Not to mention I was on one of the sides of our little group so I would be the first one to be taken down if something or someone came. It was really dark that night and it was bugging me. I don't really remember what Aaron and Kc were talking about till 11 but I fell asleep about than. So I had the most odd dream but, not enough time to tell you it. Anyhow we woke up we ate breakfast and we basically went hom...... errr... I almost forgot one of the most important parts of the story. So before we drove home, Alex had brought his soccer ball, we played soccer. Well Scott Earl has 2 dogs one a pure bread ( I forgot exactly what it's called) and the other one is unknown to me. Well, anyhow, the pure breed wanted the ball more than unknown. So much that if Bandit (unknown) would get the ball Nikki (pure bread) would start biting at her. So it was a fun game tell a dog got hurt obviously. In the end actually what happened is one of the scouts ,which one isn't really known, accidently kicked Bandits foot and cause him to limp for about 10 minutes. But than he was up and running again. Anyhow that basically my camping trip except me and Alex talked all the way home in his fathers truck which is much more roomy. Well please comment!

Sounds like a good time. I am scared of sleeping outside in the mountains too. I just get really paranoid, so I don't blame you.

James says: "Remember, being attacked by a bear builds character. Of course, I was often told that starving half to death while freezing on top of a mountain was building character ... so you have to take all character building comments with a grain of salt. Maybe two grains."

Jonathan, I'm glad you have a ridiculous friend like Alex to have irrational fears and entertain you with strange looks. Don't worry about bears. You're too scrawny, with people like big juicy Kelley, You're not appetizing.
