HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHARLIE !!!


CHARLIE CELEBRATED HIS 80TH BIRTHDAY TODAY. CHARLIE AND GRACE HAVE BEEN CAMP HOST AT YELLOW RIVER STATE FOREST EVERY SUMMER SINCE 1988. THERE WERE 14 FELLOW CAMPERS FOR HIS POTLUCK DINNER.


THE TURKEY WAS PUT ON OVER THE CAMPFIRE AT 11:00 AM AND CAME OFF AT 7:00 PM. IT WAS ROASTED TO PERFECTION !!! I HAD TO SEE IT TO BELIEVE IT !!! MARK DID A FINE JOB. THE DRESSING WAS ROASTED IN THE DUTCH OVEN.



HEY WE GOT TRAILER BRAKES BACK TODAY AFTER AN EASY AND INEXSPENSIVE FIX AT WEST SIDE AUTO IN WAUKON. WE ARE ROAD WORTHY AGAIN, AND WILL GET “AROUND TO IT” ON THE FENDER DAMAGE LATER.IT IS SO NICE TO BE CAMPED AT YELLOW RIVER, EVEN IN ANOTHER ALL DAY DRIZZEL AND RAIN. THIS IS THE BEST THAT YELLOW RIVER HAS LOOKED IN MANY YEARS.“IS THIS HEAVEN, NO IT’S IOWA………………”
