Cornfest...For the Pyro in All of Us....

Go ahead....admit it....a gigantic fire every once in awhile is pretty cool, isn't it? You don't want teach your kids to play with fire, but deep down, you enjoy watching a stack of 200 wood pallets burn, right? I can only assume this attraction to fire is genetic somehow - we're born with it. How else do you explain the fact that every campout, the #1 issue us adults deal with is admonishing our kids to "quit playing with the campfire"? The only difference between us men and the kids is that they feed the fire with piles of pine needles, while we use gallons of kerosene and black powder!
Check it out!
Looks harmless enough....


But looks can be deceiving!


As the firefighters say, "fully involved"...


Oh yeah, there was some other fun stuff like pumpkin carving, archery, and drop-dead gorgeous weather!  The Mighty Kiowa also welcomed the Soaring Eagles to our circle - glad to have you camp with us.
Now it's on to Doe Lake - get your pine cars ready!


Yatahey!
