Editor’s note: For those who may not have heard the news, The Gimlet was recently made Scoutmaster for Thing One’s Scout troop. Expect many more camping stories, fueled by plenty of red juice.
My scout troop went on a winter camp in Camp Sheppard. We got to the camp by 6:00, and then another troop was staying and lights out was at 11:00 pm. At 6:00 am, most of the people in our cabin (not me or Daddy) went on a hike called the “polar bear hike”. When everybody going was up, I was ½ awake and also ½ awake when they got back, but right then, Daddy got everybody up. Then, we had biscuits in sausage gravy and red juice, and then we had an introduction to the camp and met all the staff. Then, we went inner tubing, and the run we went on had a bump and Daddy made movies of people on the bump. There was another run, but people got too tired to go back up again. Then, we had roast beef sandwiches for lunch with red juice, packed up, deflated all the inner tubes, played games in the cabin, and had a snowball fight. Then at 3:00, we left. We were expecting to be home by 5:00 pm, but we got back by 3:52 pm.
