This post will end the Big Bend adventure. We actually do camp when we go to Big Bend but we use campers. Several own campers and this year 3 of us rented a large camper. The rental camper was very nice and comfortable once we figured out a few things like : operating the shower, the difference between heater and air conditioner, and how to operate the cruise control. We found out that the rental camper begins to vibrate above 80 MPH and has a huge appetite for gasoline.
We usually eat most meals except breakfast in camp. The camp ground has a restaurant that serves a good breakfast. Lunch is fix your own sandwiches. The camp cook (Big Walt) cooks the meals at night. After 3 years I haven't been fired yet ( no one else wants the job). The menus are very simple : Dinner out on Thursday, gourmet hamburgers on Friday, steak on Saturday, and brisket on Sunday. Dessert is usually cake and cookies baked by the wives on Friday, Dutch Oven blackberry cobbler on Saturday, and Dutch Oven peach cobbler on Sunday. For side dishes
we have baked beans, salad, and one night a German potato salad that is always consummed in a hurry. Harry helped with some of the cooking this year and it was great having someone who knew something about cooking along. Harry has a catering business in Boerne.
That's it for Big Bend until next year.
