Post by: Chris on January 11, 2009, 06:27:04 PM: That looked fun (well for me) to do. I like that kind of activity, just not camping because I don't want to find out if a bear does *&^% in the woods! Plus I like using indoor plumbing.

Looks like you had a nice day there. This time I did see people in the pictures. ;D

Post by: del on January 12, 2009, 02:59:56 AM: We had toast, cheese slices and tea. toast is delicious done for the fire. It toasts so fast that the bread doesn't dry out at all. Everything toasts so good outdoors!!
Hubby was the cook!!! Not bad for a guy who this August will celebrate 12 years on dialysis!!

Chris we don't camp out. I don't like the idea of wild animals could be around when I am asleep!!

Post by: monrein on January 12, 2009, 03:18:30 AM: I've slept out in the woods many, many times on wilderness canoe trips and been involved in one major bear "incident". I'll try to remember to post the story sometime. It was published in a collection of firsthand accounts of times when things go wrong in the woods. The title is "Gail, Lee and a Bear makes Three".

Post by: harley08 on January 14, 2009, 12:45:33 PM: Del- I love it when you send pictures of your end of the world, getting down to the basics and just loving what is around you, people should do that more often. I love to camp and raised my children to love it, oh the great outdoors :flower; :cheer: :flower;
