Gail was unable to stay out with us Friday night...she had to take care of Zeke (who had another bout of stomach issues) and had to address the board at Paul Smiths College the next morning...but she came out to help set up camp, share supper and some beverages with us, and hang out for a bit...
Little Green Pond is a gorgeous spot not too far from the fish hatchery in Lake Clear...we had some great weather on Friday and a bit of Saturday...
Ben had a great time on the campout, he ran around like crazy, enjoying the woods and the company of Autumn and Ayla...he likes sleeping in a tent and eating camp-food...
Dano read, "The Cremation of Sam McGee" to all of us...while the smoke from the campfire worked some magic at keeping the bugs down a bit...
Becca and Gail logged a travel bug (TB) for the geocaching event on Saturday that required using the TB/bottle-opener to uncork and drink and review a bottle of wine with a friend...
Dano went out the next morning to try his hand at geocaching...he found 3 during his visit, and hopefully will bring the fun back with him to Utah...
About 50 people came to the geocaching event on Saturday...everybody brought some food, and there was a ton of great stuff for all to share...we hung out, talked about geocaching in the Adks and beyond, tried out fun foods, traded travel bugs, and had a fun time...
One of the guys who came to the event had a travel bug tattooed to his leg...a bit intense for me, but pretty cool nonetheless...
Some friends from Vermont who came to the geocaching event gave me this sweet swag-bag (a bag for holding trade-items for geocaching)...this event was the 200th geocache for me, and it was made even more special by friends like DJ and Cal and the other folks who shared the day with me...
Saturday night we split up a bit, with Gail and Becca and the kids staying at our house, and Dan and Topher and I going to the Buerkett house...Sunday morning we went over to our house and made a mess of eggs and bacon and hung out and watched some movies of Rowan, Dan's 8.5 month old son...
