Kayson, Grampy and I headed to our Father and Son's annual campout. Our new ward held it at the Rock Creek Girls camp just like our last ward. We arrived at about 6:15 and set up our sleeping bags. We then headed over for dinner. We weren't the only ones who headed for dinner. Every mosquito in Fremont county was also there. I think I heard of one little boy who had 19 bites by the end of the outing. We had a really yummy dinner. Mashed Potatoes, Chicken, and Jello.

After dinner there wasn't a program so we decided to go to Cave Falls. We found that the cave at cave falls has caved in a little bit so it's more like a cove now instead of a cave. Kayson did not think it was too fun beind up on the pile of rocks so close to the water fall though and got a little bit scared. Although he did have fun looking at the water fall and wanted to go see more, but the closest one was a 6 mile hike and it was already getting dark.

When we got back to camp, Kayson found the marshmallows were out. He asked me to cook him one so I did. When I finished he asked where the graham crackers were. There weren't any so I told him to use an Orea. He really liked it and started showing it to everyone. A few of the older people thought it looked good and they needed to try one. It was an instant hit around camp.

The next morning we woke up and had pancakes, eggs, bacon, sausage, and hash browns for dinner. The mosquitos were back for breakfast as well. After breakfast we cleaned up our sleeping bags and played a game of kick ball. The kids had a lot of fun playing kick ball and when I say "kids" I include Grampy in that.

On our way home we stopped at the old Green Timber school for a quick geocache. It took us a few minutes to find it, but we did. Then we headed home to wait for next year's Father and Son's campout.
