West Texas Fun Camp






This year our normal Girl Scout camp was cancelled due to a feral hog problem. I had the "bright" idea of going to our ranch and staying the night in the little house with our girls so that they would at least have some sort of camp this year. It was fun but a lot of WORK! Don't think I was much help after working Thursday night. Let's just say this : 2nurses + 29 patients = HURT! Anyways, here's a few pics of our two fun-filled days.

So as you can see, I think we had lots of fun! I think Moma and Popa enjoyed it, too. I don't have pictures for Friday, but Mom took them on a hay ride to the Point so they could see Merkel and Trent from the Ranch. They also got to see the wind turbines annd even stood inside one of the blades that was on the ground. They loved it! The most talked about event was Pop-Pop playing his harmonica at the weenie roast that night. He later had a girl on each leg and one on each side , all eating s'mores. Next time you see him, ask him what s'mores feels like between the toes!

Well, I know it's a lot of reading, but I hope you enjoyed! Until next time!
