Whirlpool

A fun and simple pool activity where everyone forms a circle in the pool and runs as fast as they can in one direction and then everyone changes direction at the same time and try to run the other direction causing a whirlpool effect. This process is then repeated as much as desired. The more people the better the whirlpool!

Everyone form a circle in the shallow end and we'll make a whirlpool!

No dying in the whirlpool, please!

Olden Spiddle

The excess spit or spiddle expelled from an elderly person's mouth. This most frequently occurs while they are retelling long stories from "back in their day." It has been rumored that collecting this olden spiddle and putting it in your boots will bless you with protection from certain outside threats, however, this has never been successfully proven.

Oldman Miller: Back in my day, we didn't have boots like you do, we had to make our boots from scratch, and we had to use charcoal, but the charcoal would go out before you were done...

Crazy Bob: Get the olden spiddle, put it in your boots!

Hogan Spice

The small covering of dirt that gets on food as a result of being dropped while cooking over a campfire. It is so named due to the frequent occurrence while camping in the Hogans.

Be our guest, Be our guest
Put our Dutch Ovens to the test
Try the fajitas they're nutritious,
Hogan Spice it's delicious!

Warmicus Fuzziness

Legendary gladiator who is famous for his compassion. Rather than brutally killing his opponents after defeating them as was the common practice and tradition of the day, Warmicus Fuzziness would simply draw his initials, WF, in the sand next to his fallen opponent and thrust his weapon into the ground sparing his opponent's life. This is why it is common practice to honor Warmicus Fuzziness's memory by signing any Warm Fuzzy you make <3 WF.

We definitely made Warmicus Fuzziness proud this week.

Eternal Duct Tape

A legendary roll of duct tape which is capable of sticking to anything and never losing stickiness. However, the possibility of such a roll of duct tape raises the eternal question of whether you would be able to get the duct tape off the roll. Sadly, this is a question which can only truly be answered by discovering the Eternal Duct Tape.

If Eternal Duct Tape is eternally sticky, would you be able to get it off the roll?

Bullseye

Arguably, one of the best camp breakfasts there is and yet also one of the simplest to make. A bullseye is made by removing the center of a piece of bread and putting it in a greased cast iron skillet on a grate over a campfire. Then, an egg is cracked and dropped in the hole in the bread (hence the name bullseye). Finally, cheese and/or ham is placed on it and it's allowed to cook, flipping as necessary. However, pepperoni (or ronies) can also be used in place of the ham or it can be eaten plain.

Can I have a bullseye, ham and possibly ronies
Tell me Kathryn, do you want your eggs cooked up sunny side
I want to sleep
Don't you dare close your eyes!!!

Bluestone

Bluestone is a magical place where people who just met consider each other family, dogs wear people clothes, purple gorillas play tag, superheroes are real and make appearances just when they're needed most, fires reach to the skies, problems seem to fade away, and lives are changed.

Friendship for a lifetime
And a family that grows
Each and every moment
Love is being woven
Through the Father, Son, and Spirit
I have learned and now I know
That Bluestone through the ages
Will always be, like coming home
