The leader of this event purposely made it a low key time for relaxing. Our only gathering times were for afternoon board games, then cocktail hour before the potluck dinners. This made for time to enjoy time on our own or with one or two other sisters at a time ;’-).
On Friday we took the trail from our campsite to the river. That is — Green River which is quite rapid in some parts. We are aat the southern part of the river .
Rapid enough to post a warning…
Carrie had joined us for the mini hike.
One needs good boat handling skills to avoid the rocks too.
It was then time for some games if you chose, or for some chatting around the early campfire before dinner.

Did I mention that the theme of this event is everything flamingo??
The following morning Susan and Mame hiked down to the river with fly fishing gear. Though they had a good time fishing, neither caught any fish but did see salmon running ;’-).
The following morning Susan agreed to a bike ride with me. I had found what looked like a decent 15 mile loop from the campground. It turned out to be a very enjoyable ride, I added more to the end of it to get to the grocery store for a purchase of milk for Susan’s morning coffee ;’-).
There are a few things that Susan is not able to pass by without a stop. One is any porta potty on the route, another is any Little Library. We did not come across any porta potties.
This dog house could have been constructed by the CCC workers from back in the day.
In addition to a very large, long spree of discarded beer cans and whiskey bottles along the roadside, we passed several old vehicles by some old homes.
Back at camp for a stroll around the campground and more evidence of the theme, decorating various sites…
Our final gathering brought out a few more pinks.
We enjoyed our last potluck, with oh so many dishes of wonderful food — and desserts — before our farewells to each other. The next morning Susan and I would be going to Jenny’s for an overnight to spend time with the family. Home is on the near horizon for some R&R before taking off for California. See you there ;’-))).
