Boot Camp

On a eventful 2008 labour day long weekend
We went camping - with Shahs - at our wits end.

WoodHouse it is called where we set up our tent
Along came friends and for orienteering we went.

Maps in our hand, we ran like wild goose
Across acres of land to find hidden clues.

Youngsters won it, second came we old
Day went easy but night was bloody cold.

Camp site was like a Hobit's shire
Even better when we lit camp fire.

Our face lit up when the fire was on
In went wood, potatoes and lot of corn.

Next day we tackled Challenge Hill at noon
Would know what we are made of...very soon.

Ribs were almost broken
But spirit was never shaken.

We hit our head & landed on our bun
But we never stopped & had a lotta fun.

In summary, we had a ball & a big blast
For sure, our visit here won't be the last.

Thanks Shahs for organizing the camp
What if it was more like a boot-camp.

Body is still paining but regrets are none
As you know, I like sticking to my gun. ;-)
