Saturday, July 28-Day 13

Saturday, July 28

Since we had such a late evening last night, we had a lazy morning. Eventually we drove over to Chester to Shop Rite for supplies. We thought we'd take in a movie, but it didn't start for several hours so we headed to the bowling alley. Mark and Blaine bowled. I don't think Mark has bowled for quite a long time.

We still had time to kill, so we drove to a Target. We got off at the wrong exit and were on our way up a LONG hill to West Point. We had to find a place to u-turn.
We found our way to the Target and replaced Mark's old belt.

We finally were able to see our movie, Harry Potter. I thought it was well done.




Back at the campground, we worked on our evening meal. Blaine got out the safari grill while Mark & I worked on the campfire. We must have had the worst newspaper. The thing wouldn't burn even when the match was on it. Blaine was able to finally get the outside cooked, but not the inside. Mark & I were able to get a fire after using half the paper, about 10 fire starters, and 30 minutes of constant tending. Eventually we got it going and Blaine finished cooking the hamburgers on the fire and we roasted the hot dogs.

Next was the marshmallows. S'mores. Yum.


After the huge sugar rush, we played UNO. Mark 2 games, Dad 1, Mom 0
Then Trivial Pursuit. Mark 3 pies, Dad 4 pies, Mom 4 pies and then we called it quits. Moths were drawn to our lights and an energetic grasshopper scared us to death.
