Our camp hosts came by to check our registration ticket. When she spoke to Darlie, Darlie recognized her Georgia accent. They struck up a conversation. Lita and Gary Bird are camp hosting for the first time this year. For those who don’t know, a camp host stays in the campgrounds for a period of time, usually a month or more. They oversee the activities of the campers to make sure rules are compiled with. For their service they are given a camp site with full hookups. Some campgrounds provide more or less depending on the location and responsibilities.
They plan to be hosting in Florida this coming winter. We exchanged information so we can get together when they come down. They hope to be hosting in Everglades NP.
We are sitting on the lakeshore once again. Many of the weekend people are gone. It is much quieter now. The lake is calm. The grill is going. The sun will soon set on another beautiful day. We will start a campfire and wait for the Indians to salute the moonrise once again.
Starting a fire the way the cowboys did, with lots of cardboard.
