GKC - Day 3

A great start to the day is PawPaw's bacon, eggs, hash browns and toast

as we discussed and planned the job chart for the week.

Then, the Flag Ceremony!

Will was in charge of the Flag today.

He chose his Color Guard - Grant and Jack.

We all took a walk around the new driveway

and moved a few rocks along the way.

The fun project is the digging going on out front,

or more properly referred to as the "mining operation". Notice the safety ropes.

Brock is proud of the worm he excavated.

The trail (aka the new road) is working beautifully!

The boys have worked the trail, too!

They are packing it by riding on it.

Will is in the lead.

Grant is having a great time!

The last one is Mitchell!

Holly has enlisted the help of Brock and Charlotte in the rock shop.

It really is much smaller than in the last years.

Business seems to be down a little

and most of her help has moved to the mining operation

and road packing crew.

We had rain on the four wheeler picnic, but it was light and short.

Charlotte found some pretty flowers.

Lunch was ham sandwiches, chips, and apples with peanut butter.

Will gave me a great pose on the bridge.

After quiet time, we had to wake Brock, Mitchell and Charlotte

to play Walkie Talkie Commandos!

With help, Charlotte found her prize!

Brock found his new rope, too!

They are great little campers

and we are delighted to have them join us this year!

The campfire cookout is always a favorite.

Jack lit a one match fire this afternoon!

Holly was the campfire storyteller this evening!

It was a scary and funny story.

Grant tries the new s'more recipe and a special technique for eating them!

Jack shows the new s'more!

It was a hit.
One toasted marshmallow between two fudge stripe cookies!

mmmm...

The new S'mores are still messy! Time to hit the showers.

We marvel at the amount of dirt everyday.

It is in the shoes, hair, clothes, socks, underwear - everywhere!

Some of the kids clean their shoes before they come inside.

Some of them take their shoes off.

Some of them just don't come in all day.

Jack says that is what Grandkids Camp is all about!

The Bee Movie was fun tonight.

With a big day planned for tomorrow, we are off to bed.
