Last chance to enjoy our cairns before getting to bed
Here is mom waking up in the morning. I've slept hundreds of times in the back of my car. It's some of the best sleep ever.
Hannah and Zoe slept really well. They were the last to wake up. No animals ate them during their sleep.
Morning lounging at the campsite
lounging. We eventually packed up and headed home. We took a slightly different route (they are all about the same) (okay, I missed on minor turn)...but we got to see an Osprey on nest as a result!
Once home and unpacked, we got out our final craft of the trip: Glitter tattoos. We did not have enough glitter in the house with the magnets so this seemed to be the right thing to do.
Mom applied Zoe's tattoos.
Some great looking glitter!
Zoe and Hannah show up their badness.
Zoe applied both of mine. I think she has a future in this stuff. Her choice of glitter was superb.
Showing off our tatts. Zoe is showing off her stink-eye. Quite impressive.
Zoe's work
Then it was time for last minute working on our presentation books.
Lots to catch up on. The presentations were to be held immediately after dinner.
Chef Hannah was in charge this evening. Her menus included bar-be-que chicken (drumsticks and breasts), spaghetti squash, and baked potatoes. Good stuff!
Before diving in. Next up; Presentations!
Zoe presented first. Like last year, she had impecable organization, and attention to detail. She spoke clearly and had several illustrations to share with the audience.
Hannah went next (and also stood in proxy for mom). She also did an excellent job describing the week, what she liked best and what she learned.
This was starting to look like a pretty difficult job for Judge Dave.
Callie went third focusing on her illustrations since winning on organization and attention to detail would be difficult with what she'd seen with the previous contestants.
The contestants stood for a photo and the judge retired to score us....
A short time later, the winners were announced and it turned out we were all winners!
Zoe accepts the magic goose (the judge was confused...it was a magic swan) award!
And Hannah accepted her award of a fierce lizard from Judge Dave (it was an alligator really).
Mom accepted her award -scented soap for her colorful use of language in her presentation.
Here is a photo of me accepting may scented soap award from Judge Dave.
The judge - Dave.
Award recipient Zoe stands for a photo with her Big Prize.
Mom appears genuinely happy with her loot.
Hannah poses with her major award.
We had to take Hannah's photo twice....had a photo bomb incident. :)
Then it was over. Everyone went to bed. We got up the next morning having time for breakfast and a trip to the bus station. They got on their bus to the airport, and I crossed the street to get on my bus to Denver. They don't know it, but I saw them drive by on the highway.
Until next year!
