I was able to go camping with the girls' scout troop. It was tons of fun!!
The particular campground we went to had platform tents. Those were a first for me. I would much rather set up a traditional tent. The platform tents don't secure at the bottom. Anything can crawl in. I told more than one Girl Scout to suck it up.
We got to participate in archery. The adults got to have a try, too. I took an archery class in high school, but don't remember a whole lot about it. Rachel made two bullseyes! I was so glad I was along to see it. It would have been fun and exciting to hear her tell me about it, but it was even better witnessing it. My archery skills weren't as good as Rachel's, but it was fun.
We hiked down to a creek the girls were able to wade in. The younger girls learned how to build a fire. All the girls were able to make smores each night.
For dinner one night, we had Tacos in a Bag. That was another first for me. Each person got an individual bag of Doritoes and added the taco toppings to the bag. The idea was to eat it out of the bag. Of course, everything tastes better after a day of hiking.
Tacos in a Bag were such a big hit, Hannah (with a bit of adult supervision) made it for the family when we got home. We just bought a big bag of Doritoes and portioned them into baggies.
