Colestin Camp Out in 5 weeks!

Greetings blog followers,

So sorry that your faithful correspondent has been less than faithful lately. Hey, since this blog is called Colestin Camp Out, howzabout some Colestin Camp Out news? It's coming up, y'know: June 25-27. The Dogboy has to work on Friday and won’t be able to act as master of ceremonies for the pizza feed. Lord knows he has earned a year off after working like a field hand since – well, since the first camp out lo these 15 years ago. Sequoia and I will rise up a bunch of dough and make a pan of sauce. Bring sauces, cheeses, toppings, all the good stuff. If all goes to plan, Lowell will pull in right about the time we start putting pizza in the oven. Won’t it be wonderful to feed him for a change?

We haven’t lighted on a theme for Saturday. James Dean expressed a hankering for fry bread again and, really, who doesn’t have a hankering for fry bread? With maybe some pork? Lord, lord.

After years of fretting about the young'uns and the teenagers and the novices and the weather, I'm in a "do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law" mood this year; just as long as we remember the second line of that invocation, "love is the law, love under will." Do what you will and do it yourself; as long as it is done with love, everything will work out.
