Sunday was about packing up by 11:00 with pancakes cooked by Jeffery in the middle. Things you learn when camping: Always get the griddle hot way ahead of time. After breakfast we had the hammer toss game, It involves throwing the hammer into the air, catching it and then immediately pounding the nail of one of your opponents. It made everyone laugh because that log took a beating between actual nail contacts and a couple of nails got re-pounded by accident. Last nail standing is the weiner.
