This weekend I was at Girl Scout camp for outdoor training. I set up my tent all by myself.
We had a full weekend- hiking, archery, fire starting, knot tying, cooking, tent pitching, singing, and knife safety.
I used a latrine for the first time in my life, wow, that was an experience.
The weather was rather chilly. Friday night I froze and Saturday night it rained. I also realized that my Girl Scouts are not ready to camp out at a campsite; we are going to start with backyard camping this year.
We learned a lot of different ways to cook outside. This is a "vagabond" stove made from a coffee can, tuna can, corrugated cardboard, and wax, it's great for make grilled cheese or hot dogs. We also used a box stove, dutch ovens, and pie irons.

White pants at outdoor training? Impressive.
Aren't latrines lovely? Breathe through your shirt in there.
