Much excitement here this morning as the kids prepared for their holiday backpacking trip. They marched around carrying backpacks, knives and water bottles. The place they are going is in the Sierra forest, with streams and lakes nearby.
The weather is hot and dry. I told the boys about a game I often played with my sons on such trips. We'd find the base of a big tree and gather twigs, cones, acorns, branches, leaves, and other materials to build a "fort."
