Ready to Go?

Sure seemed like everything was coming together for a fun free for all for the Happy Campers. Judy had made a few calls and was able to line up a two night stay at the 7 Caves Campground and she had also discovered the missing young couple had simply eloped and been afraid to tell their parents. One mystery solved. Patsy was just going to meet the group at the Campground on Saturday which was when Cindy and the Aints would arrive. Kim and Judy had decided for certain and for sure they would make a planned impulsive trip down on Friday to spend the night and maybe lay out a Treasure Hunt hike for the others. Kim suggested they hide the clues after dark. That way nobody would see them, take the clues and spoil the fun. Judy said she would see how large of a flashlight she could find at SPortsmans Guide and would consider the idea. Kim said she'd bring her pointy stick and the plastic easter eggs for the clues.
The evening meal details were being left up to Ain't Shirley while Ain't Bee was bringing breakfast. Neither woman was quite sure camping OUTSIDE would be quite the party that staying in a cabin would be so Judy said she would call back to see if there were any cabins for rent. Kim was concerned about bedbugs but then decided if she and Judy got there early enough on Friday they could fumigate the place while checking out the trails. Seemed the ladies weren't very too good at following semi marked (ok well marked but not seen) trails and had more than once found themselves marching down main roads while loudly convincing each other that THIS was a SHORTCUT. For sure.
The days passed quickly and soon it was time to embark upon the Happy Camper 7 Caves Comfortable Shoes Expedition.
