On Friday, November 14, 2008 and Saturday, November 15, 2008 we all went to Coon's Bluff. The boys that went were Nick, Tallon, Porter S., Porter D., Ian P., Brandon, Michael, Nicholas, Caleb, and Ben. The leaders that went were Brother Bradshaw, Brother Weed, President Hauserman, also Mr. Prost. Some of the teachers and p riests and their leaders also came but they didn't stay the night.When we first got there we got all of our stuff out and we put up our tents. After that we decided to play for a little while until we got hungry. Then we decided to have a little competition. Our Two patrols, The Platypeople and the Blacklions, decided to see whose Dinner and Breakfast was better. So for dinner the Platypeople made quesidillas and the Blacklions made hamburbers and the leaders tested them. Both dinners looked great!
After that it started to get a little dark so most of us went into the tents to play games. We stayed up really late and then after a few hours we all went to bed.
We all woke up pretty early in the morning and made a fire and sat around it for half an hour and we started making breakfast. This time both of the patrols made the same thing, breakfast burritos. We all ate and played a little. The leaders haven't decided who won the dinner and breakfast contest but at least we all had a lot of fun.
So then we all started cleaning up and we took down a tent and found some scorpions. We were playing with them and trying to get them to sting stuff like sticks. They almost got some of us then Ian backed up and almost stepped on it. We couldn't find it and were looking hard for it. Then after a while Caleb saw it sticking out of Ian's shoe so Ian took off his shoe immediately so then we got rid of it and we left right after that. We all had lots of fun.
