Adam slept in again until almost 9:30.  After everyone had eaten breakfast we took a walk around the campground. The boys rode their scooters.  Around 11:00 we headed out to Estivant Pines to hike the trails with Grandma and Grandpa. It's such a beautiful hike.  We went back to camp from there for lunch. Then we went to see Dennis and Leslie. We took the boys over to play at the school playground for awhile.  Then we came back to watch Dennis raku firing. He fired the boys painted stars and they turned out nice. We got back to camp around 6pm. Eli fell asleep on the short trip there and continued sleeping in the van. Jacob chopped wood with the hatchet and started the fire by himself.  He said, "Wow I must be 8 years old!" After dinner Grandma and Jacob took a walk over to the fort buildings. Jacob said it was really FUN! Adam and I took a bike ride around camp and to the camp playground. Lake Fanny Hooe was so pretty this evening. Daddy taught Jacob how to skip rocks.  We sat by the fire with Grandma and Grandpa and made smores. We were in bed around 9:30.
