Girls Camp

Our Young women went to girls camp last week. We got home from girls home one week ago. Wow this week at home has flown by. Back to Girls Camp. If you have the opportunity to pick a place to go to girls camp or pick a place for a family reunion allow me to recommend the ranger station on the Cub River just north of Franklin, Idaho. It was a wonderful location. There is a beautiful cabin there that has two bedrooms. running hot water for a shower. Yes, I said SHOWER.. at camp! Heaven sent!! The cabin runs on propane. Propane cooking stove, which is a camp chef type grill. The lights in the cabin are propane lanterns, they give a wonderful warm glow at night. We only lit them once just to see what they looked like. I thought it was wonderfully charming!

We took 20 young women to camp. 5 Young women leaders and two priesthood leaders with us. We had a delightful time. The creek, pardon me, Cub River was 100 feet behind the cabin and at night, well all the time you could hear the river running. It was absolutely wonderful. Cool in the shade, warm in the sun! Beautiful sites, gorgeous refreshing smells of the mountains. Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!

The time that we spent at the camp was ideal! We also took the girls to go swimming at a nearby hot springs. That was not such a positive experience.
Our girls earned the money to go to camp and some of them had to pull weeds and do yard work to get their money to go and then to have this establishment to not be fair and honest with them was too bad. However, we realize that in this world, life is not fair. We just took the opportunity to emphasise integrity.

All in all we had a great experience at CAMP!
Remember CUB RIVER!! Great place for a good time out camping or reunions or just family get togethers.
