As I saw a funny the other day:
Summer should get a speeding ticket!
I cannot believe Autumn will be officially here in only 10 days!
This last Saturday we went to the Campfires & Candlelight event at Fort Vancouver.
It was very fun as it is every year.
I was in the WWI camp again, I like to call it "my WWI camp" as I've been stationed there for the past 4 years now. 😉
This year though was different.
None of the others that have been in that camp with me were there this year!
I had 5 new "re-cruets"!
Micah & Matty were dough-boys (soldiers) representing the mill workers and loggers of the Spruce Mill.
And we had a couple and their son, along with their 1917 Model-T ambulance!!
Wish I had pictures, but I didn't take my camera with me this year and my mom forgot to bring it when she came to visit. 😑
It rained on us!!!!
The weather had 3 weeks before to rain and put out nearby fires and relieve the fire ban so we could have fires to cook over at the event, but did it?
No, of course not! so we got damp/wet and had cold dinner!
But, at least it was a good dinner and even though the rain made us a bit chilly, we all enjoyed it very much. Well, I know I did anyways. 😊
Our next event will be Sept. 30th, 1pm-3pm on Officers Row at Fort Vancouver.
I'm looking forward to it as we will have 30+ people there in era's from the 1840's-1945!
I shall now share a few funnies to end this post as I cannot think of anything else to say and I have written a lot already.
