Brin got to on the annual 3rd Grade Gooseberry Campout this past week, and because she is a girl, Julie got to go also. As always, the weather was cold, wet, haily, and cold(did I already say that). They both survived, although Annie Bangs came at night and grabbed Brin.
Hey, it is Smokey the Bear and his handy helper Charcoal the Elephant(????) Not quite sure what is up with an elephant in a Utah National Forest. I guess she has the trunk to put out wildfires. This is Brin's group up at the camp. They went to various classes and demonstrations during the two days.
Brin is waiting for Annie Bangs to arrive. As the legend states, Annie was a young infant many years ago. She lived with her family in a cabin near the Gooseberry Campground. One day, a horrible storm hit the cabin and her parents where unable to get into town for supplies. Their water was running out too. The dad decided to try to make a trip into town to get some supply. He left one morningand never came back. The mother decided to go looking for him or to find food. She wrapped the baby in a shawl and left her in a cradle. The mother never came back either. The cries of the baby brought wolves to the cabin where they were able to get in. They didn't kill her but took her with them and raised her as a wolf pup. She haunts the Gooseberry area ever since.
At least Julie gets a break from this for several years, as the boys will be next. Which means my turn!
