the way out we tackled up signs, that
showed the way to our camp.
When we got there we found
things in pretty bad shape, the plaster
had fallen, and there was straw
scattered about over the floor. We
got out broom and we sure made the
dust fly.
When we got through we climbed
to the top Of the bluff and took our
field glasses to see what there was
around.
After we. got through playing up
there we went back and asked if we
could go swimming, but they told
us that we had to wait till the truck
came.
We went with Mr.. Baughman to
get some grass for the boys to sleep
on. While we was out there we saw
the truck coming so l got on and
went back with them. When we got
back we all made a rush for the
creek We stayed in about one
hour then came out and went to the
house to put on our clothes for that

By that time supper was ready and
we all lined up to take our turn to

could hear some one say "Hey there
give me more than that, what do you
think l am any way" After supper
we went down to the creek and fish

the house and the roll was called.

glorious time watching them eat our
beloved fish while we were content
with bacon. We then fished and
swan for awhile but soon we came
