Which prayer was that?

Out of all those critters, the most dangerous I ever encountered were the squirrels.
 

Special facilities

Everything is a matter of perspective. 
 

Bringing the heat

This is what happens when our stake's Girl's Camp coincides with our Come, Follow Me study of Elijah.

In my experience, Girl's Camp usually has great food. It's what is on the Young Men's menu you have to worry about!
 

Sketchbook: up close and personal

We visited a ward on Sunday where the sacrament meeting program was a report on Girls Camp — for the third week in a row, apparently. The bishop said he really wanted the ward to know what it was like. Having been on many a scout camp, I went there.

Sorry, no Canada Day cartoon this year, eh?

Fairy Tale Theatre

I've said it before: If you think the sights you see in the morning at Girls Camp are scary, you've never been to Scout Camp!

On a personal note, I kind of like the way the sky turned out on this one. I love it when a cartoon comes together!

On a short leash

SFX: Eerie music in the background.

Cue Rod Serling: "Imagine a world with no targeted ads, no news updates, no unwanted, unrelenting political diatribes on social media.

"You have just entered... Girls Camp!"

Which, in its way, can be a little Twilight Zone-ish, can't it?

Standing for something

There are times that you just have to stick to your principles!

Cleaning up the camping gear after Girls Camp isn't nearly as bad as cleaning it up after Scout camp!

Second thoughts on first impressions

It's a lot easier to have pleasant memories of a place after you've gone.

Cooking hacks

It's those little things.

Vantage point

Always look on the bright side, I guess!

If you chance to meet a bug...

Not all insects can be reasoned with, apparently.

Sketchbook: Hitting the showers

Sometimes I wonder why they even have showers at Scout camp!

Camp: it's a hot spot

That's why the electronics stay at home.

You have been warned!

It may keep the deacons away, but it will have the opposite effect on the priests!

Gonna need a bigger bag

Our Young Women are off to camp this week, so it's time to pay tribute to them and their intrepid leaders. Thank you!

The sounds of scriptures

Too much of a good thing

Ever wonder how Scouts can survive on a diet of ramen and peanut butter?
