Man I am glad you said 72 and not 77 little darlings. I was going to call the FBI and give you to them cause of a perceived (terrorists threat) glad none of them were called allah.

have a fun time with the children and when you get back we will try to help you recover your sanity.

Re: I'm outta here ...

Well, I am on my way back to PA ... should be leaving Denver soon.

Camp was a blast. The kids were great, but I was concerned after Kagee's comment and we took them to the fire department for a community service event - they cleaned the rigs, etc, but before they did that the Chief wanted to give them an overview - part of that was a ropes rescue lesson complete with knot tying instructions!

Worst part was while "swimming" 8 of the little darlings came to dunk me. They all went under. So they regrouped and came back with a dozen. Well, 9 went down, but 3 had my leg and each pulled a different direction. Gotta have it drained as soon as I get home ... guess I am not as young as I think I am ....

Then on to Denver after Camp. Had a blast in the Rocky's there.

Pictures will follow when I get home.

Definitely beautiful country, and after sneaking up on so many animals and seeing all the beautiful scenery, I am anxious to go back with a fishing rod, a gun, and a camera and spend time in the mountains!
