t0r the camping trip was Big Lake,
We started out Thursday morning az
nine o'clock, and we soon were at the
south end of the lake. After the tent
were all put up we were ready to enjoy
ourselves. There was good fishing and
a good place TO swim, so there was M
reason for getting the blues.
The wind on Thursday evening made
us reinforce the tent stakes, but We
did not have anything blown away by
the wind. The next morning at hall
past three found some of the boys out
on the lake fishing, but the fish did
not bite until about five o'clock.
Friday noon we received surpr-c
dinner from our Scout Masters par
ents, Mr., and Mrs. Waggoner. of For
tescue. We all cleaned fish and gave
them to Mrs. Waggoner to fry. Be-
lieve me, we had some feed.
Saturday morning found most OF Us
asleep when the bugle blew at $50
(The Scout Master had to wake the
bugler to sound reveille.)
That afternoon we broke camp and
most Of US did that with heavy heart
We all hope to go again to stay longer
