"6:00 a.m. The child and I are up. Newly reconstituted fire + ensconced near said fire in dad's sleeping bag = happy and questioning child."
"Where does the wood go?"
"If those are the ashes from the log, where do the ashes the pastors use [on Ash Wednesday] come from?"
"What does grandpa wear for pajamas?"
"7:30 a.m. Grandpa and the dogs join us. Coffee and hot chocolate are brewing." (The others will drag themselves out of bed over the next hour or so.)
"9:40 a.m. Father's Day. I receive a homemade butterfly card and a homemade beer label box from the child."

"11:50 a.m. Camp is down. Fire is extinguished. All wave goodbye."
