Girl Scout Camp

Kristy had her first camping trip. We went up to the Tehachapi mountains. It was a bit cold but everyone had a really good time. The girls hanging in their tent. A quick shot of Kristy and I, before I realized how old I am and how I can't keep up like I used to. hmmhmmha
Campfire had great songs, smores and even a skit. This is "doin' the John Travolta" dance. Kristy even got up and led a repeat song that she made up herself. It was something like
"We are girl scouts... we like to sing... the campfire is fun... we make smores... we eat them up... then we go to bed..." The leader of the oldest girls was impressed by her courage of getting up in front of everyone.
With three layers of clothes and her sleeping bag Kristy was very comfy sleeping. I understand why parents always seemed to go crazy at camp, parents can't sleep while camping with kids spread around the site....
In the morning it was quite cold and Kristy was very ready to head home. There isn't a picture of her without a grimace from the cold. At least we weren't there the night before when it rained on everyone.

Kristy said her favorite part was the hike where they learned to use a compass (kind of) and followed coordinates to find treasures (flash light, dog tag, and whistle). I enjoyed sitting at the fire waiting for it to die out and hearing the hum of chatter from all the tents.
