Camping in the Cold

Last night Mark and I went camping with the 11-year-old Boy Scouts, and we had a great time! We honestly expected it to be A LOT colder, but the low last night got down only to about 28. We were prepared for COLD, and so as a result, most of us were actually too layered and too hot - go figure!

The Scouts, as part of their First Class rank requirements, were required to cook three meals for their troop and for the dads. Not only did we SURVIVE the cooking, it was actually all pretty good! Thanks, Scout leaders, for suggesting a good menu! We had tin foil dinners of meat and veggies Friday night, pancakes and sausage for breakfast Saturday morning, and sandwiches for lunch just before heading home. Yummy!

To the right here, you see that Mark chose to wear part of camp on his face. He wanted to make an overnighter look like we'd been out in the woods all week, I guess! And then below, check out the group photo of everyone on the campout. Check out all 31 of the photos I took either here on Facebook, or here on Flickr.
