  OK, enough of this posing.  Ham it up!

 The first night was the last night we could have a campfire.

We visited around the fire until midnight
when the fire ban went into effect.

Norm, Karen, Clare.

 Then Clare rigged up a system to keep us warm and visit outdoors.

She put a lantern under a metal table and we stretched blankets between us.

Magnificent.

DeRay told Jack about how his Great Grandpa Pugh sold Minnesota Woolen clothes.He gave each of his children and grandchildren a wool jacket to wear at reunion.  We still have ours.  DeRay wanted to give one to Jack.

 I think he likes it!

 DeRay makes sour dough hot cakes every morning and sour dough biscuits each night.  This year he added sour dough cinnamon rolls to his repertoire.

Only three rigs in the circle this year.  One tent. (See Class Distinction)

Everyone else stays in cabins, condos, or mansions.

Where are the good ol' days when everyone's tent got flooded?
