Ahhhh….Camp Sammy Is Great!

Posted on March 18, 2013 by onespoiledcat

UPDATE!! POLLS CLOSED!!

Well I really must say – this whole camping idea was grand. I know you would think that as Camp Counselor I might be busy all the time and not able to enjoy all this beauty here in the park BUT everybody is behaving themselves. Not much for the official Camp Counselor to do! There have been no accidents that a bandaid couldn’t fix (!!) and it seems like lots of fun is being had by everyone here.

Yep – I’m ONE HAPPY CAMPER along with everybody else!!

Our little friend, Baby Sabre – the newest addition to Long Life Cats and Dogs was very disappointed that he hadn’t been able to find a ride to camp – he was all packed and very excited but when his ride fell through he was devastated. SO, I called my friends at the Feline Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and asked if they had a jet in the area, could they pick him up and bring him to camp. They did – isn’t that pawsome?

Wheeee! This is a big airplane for such a little guy!

There were more nature hikers today but plenty of our peeps decided to spend the day “tent-hopping” – enjoying each other’s company in these incredible tents everyone brought. Which reminds me – if you haven’t voted in the contest – here’s your chance! (you can vote for more than one favorite too)

We had a whole crew of friends who went fishing in the streams today so we’ve got all kinds of fish!

Tonight’s dinner round the camping cookout area will feature lots of fresh fish among the usual other main courses.

I’ll have one of each please!

Tomorow morning, after another wonderful night of peace and quiet in our tents in the woods, we’re going to move to our beach campsite. Oh boy! Those of you who wanted to have a beach campout will get your wish………..we’ll have a great big bonfire celebration on Tuesday night on the beach where we’ll read the winning scary poem and tell everyone who won the virtual scavenger hunt drawing!

If you want to vote for the Scariest Campfire Poem, just CLICK HERE and scroll down to read them, then leave the number of the poem you think is the BEST in a comment on my blog.

FOR THE BEST DECORATED TENT COMPETITION – TODAY IS THE LAST DAY TO CAST YOUR VOTE IN THE POLL !! DON’T FORGET !!

I do hope you will all have an enjoyable Monday at Camp Sammy.

Kitty Hugs, Sammy – your Camp Counselor

  Thanks for saying that Misaki….I’m so happy you’re having fun and that you were able to come. I’ve seen you doing lots of fun things so far like hiking and fishing – I know you probably miss your Mom and Dad since they are usually with you when you’re exploring, but just think of the stories you can tell when you get home!! See you around camp!

What a fabulous, awesome, wonderful get together you have arranged. Baby Sabre is soooooo happy that you got the FBI jet to collect him. Good golly, you are one well connected kitty!

  Hi Miss Susan! Well, the photo didn’t show up initially this morning (even though it was there last night!!)……..BUT Mom finally got it to post so now everybody can see how cute Sabre looks on that jet………he’s here now, and seems to be having a ball with all the other young kitties and pups that are at camp. We’ll take VERY good care of him and send him back to you with lots of stories to tell I’m sure!!

  Cupcake you certainly have been very brave here at camp – VERY. I’m so proud of you and I know your Mom is too. Also, thank you for helping to take care of some of the “little ones” here – I saw you telling little baby Sabre the kitten one of your Mom’s stories to keep him entertained. That was a very generous and sweet thing to do.

  Hi Boys! So happy you’re having fun….I do believe that everybody is enjoying this little getaway. Tomorrow we’ll be at the beach and THAT will be a whole new experience won’t it?! Maybe we’ll do this again too. Camping is fun and a great excuse for ALL of us to spend some time together. I saw the inside of your tent on your blog – WOW!

That campfire dinner looks so good tonight Sammy! Can’t wait to head to the nearby beach tomorrow for our last day, but I feel kinda sad that it has to end soon. Well, I hope you had a good St. Patrick’s Day Sammy, and I hope you recieved your bacon, if you did!

  YES! Sammy can’t go a day without his bacon cheeseburger so he arranged for all the fixins for ALL the nights of the campout. Watermelon is definitely on the menu – and probably will be the night of the big beach party bonfire tomorrow as well…………these animals know how to PAWTY don’t they??

  I guess in my lifetime (which is quite long!) I’ve had more ginger tabbies than any other type. They are so loving. All the animals I’ve had tiptoe through my life have been special in one way or another but Sam’s truly one of the most dear. He was a feral kitten when we adopted him – and he’s a polydactyl with six toes on his front paws. We resisted the temptation to call him “Mittens” (thank heavens).
