Well I thought I started a picture thread, but found out I had done it in the report thread, was tired I guess so here are mine so far:
A shot on the way up on Highway 11:
Got there about dark and unloaded, this was the view:
I lit a lantern, and went to work on a hunk of corned beef and some coffee:
Rain in the night dampened things:
But was got going again right after daylight:
After finishing cooking with cabbage and tators it was good:
Salt Crick Rick watching the gravy for supper:
Troops kept showing up, some in civies:
The fire was kept going in to guide in late arrivals:
Morning was chilly:
But the work in the kitchen went on:
Evening after supper found the troops pretty much staying in the barracks because of cold weather:
Checking a fancy weather device it was decided that it might be gettin' white outside:
New device was accurate:
Breakfast was a bit late, but was sausage and scambled eggs and bacon to fuel the troops well for the cold, despite an accident where several eggs were lost, and more had to be cracked:
Rick prepared the noon bacon and beans:
The kitchen became a sloppy mess:
But dinner was ready for the troops when the returned:
Five dutch ovens were filled with roast and veggies for supper:
And the sundown was great:
The troops retired to the barracks after supper for prizes:
Because of tactial planning in the barrarks till the wee hours of the morning, the cooks slept a bit late and instead of hash, the pot roast was rewarmed for breakfast, and the noon meal started, which because of the cold required the lard and flour to be warmed a bit:
Salt Crick Rick cleaned some of the gear before leaving:
Despite the weather looking bad, the commissary dept was able to make it home with just a bit of ice stuck to the side of the wagon:
A very fun trip.
