Come Sing With Us



We finally got a chance to have our Wednesday night campfire outside. It was a beautiful evening for a campfire.

We had some special guests tonight. There is a group of 40-some teenagers from two camps (1-boy's and 1-girl's) that are camping here this week. While here they are taking advantage of some of the activities available in this area.

Tonight most of them came to our campfire. I thought they were pretty well behaved. Judy was not quite so sure. I figure that anytime 40-some-odd 14-16 year-olds sit around without tearing the place apart (or having sex in the middle of the crowd) they are doing pretty well. About a dozen other guests joined us as well.

The camp counsellors did a great job keeping them under control. They also led us all in a couple of songs that the campers knew, and a great time was had by all.

There were enough people that we were able to do some songs in parts. The top picture shows me working with the groups for a rousing version of George Washington Bridge.

In addition to the singing Judy read a scary story, and I told a long shaggy-dog story. It is one of our favorite activities of the week.
