Sunday 14~~~~~~I drove into town tonight about dusk and I stopped at the West's house to find them in their back yard cooking dinner over their new fire pit in their back yard. Cory was cooking pork shops over the open fire and Tress made the rest of the dinner inside. They had their chairs all around the fire and it was just like camping. Monday 15~~~~~Kent came into town this morning, and we went to Apple Bee's for dinner tonight. On our way home Tress and Bodie drove up beside us on River Road, they had gone out for dinner too, they followed us home and we had dessert at our house and visited. Tuesday 16~~~~We both had errands to run today, after I finished mine, I baked a carrot cake for one of the young rangers at the park who has a birthday today and she will be heading back to Iowa on Friday. Everyone loves my carrot cake and they always ask me if I will make one, so this is a request from Kaly for her birthday. We called three of the other host couples to come over and eat cake with Kaly and the Rangers, it was about 8:00PM when they came over, as they were working late. The cake and ice cream was really appreciated by the Rangers, as they had a 12 hour day and they were really hungry. We sure will miss these young rangers, they really are a lot of help in the operation of the park.
