Camping

[Bill Childs]

How is it that one careless match can start a forest fire,
but it takes a whole box full to start a campfire?!

Bill,

I hear that! a whole box plus girl scout juice. Or, one tiny boy with a childproof lighter. Lynella.

"girl scout juice" ??
Must be a story there.

When my oldest son was about 8, we were camping. My ex-husband was supposed to be making a fire. I heard my boy, Garrett gasp really loud and he says, "Dad's a girl scout!" Laughing, I asked why. He said, "Cause' that's girl scout juice, they have to use it to build fires cause' they don't know how." He was talking about the can of charcoal lighter fluid Ken was using. Lynella.
