Thursday June 12 - The first two days at the cabin were rainy and quite moist (sorry, Candace, I know how much you love that word!) Building a campfire to cook Hobo dinners proved quite problematic. Damp wood will not hold a fire, no matter how hard you try! The goal was to have dinner waiting for Garrett and Jake once they arrived from Idaho Falls. Kim and I set up the table all fancy-like to set out a nice welcome for Garrett, who was joining us a day late. (Candles, oh-la-la!) He flew in from from Spokane from a business trip (Jake drove down to pick him up.)
Sadly, after the difficulties with keeping the fire going, we got a text informing us that Garrett's plane was delayed. Finally, a little before 2:00 a.m. the boys arrived. We scrapped the campfire idea and went to Plan B. We threw the hobo dinners in the oven-- where a small grease fire started. Not the best welcome dinner ever, but sure made a hell of a blog-worthy memory.
