Day 850: High winds

I hope the high winds will cease before the hike begins on Friday.  A huge front is moving through the country and spinning off fierce tornadoes.  The forecast is for rain and 50s.  The kids will learn how to set up camp and hike in the rain.  Tim asked me in class, "How do we cook in the rain?"  Oh, that brought back memories of preparing meals in horrible weather.  One year it was raining so hard all through dinner prep that when we went to eat the cheesecake, an inch of water covered it.  Challenging circumstances always produce more growth opportunities and I hope our campers do learn and have a great time doing so.
