10 The car drove off and that was the end of that exclttment. The fog was rising off from the lake and we were so cold »nd we couldn't get warm. Some how we managed to go back to sleep, but not for long. We woke up at four-thirty and decided to get up and build a fire and get warm. We got our own breakfast and then Joyce and I Walked a way • with Orttha,, who was going to church. When Joyce and I came back we went boat riding and then swimming. By that time the rest were up and day was under way. Sunday night Orths, Ann and Merilyn went to the movies. David was over at camp and he helped Joyce and me do the dish- es . What can we do to play a joke on the girls? asked Joyce. I tell you. Let's make a French bed, replied David. We made a French bed on Ann'.s and Merilyn's bed. When they got home we planned that we would pretend to be asleep to hear what they had to say, but we had just barely gotten in bed when they arrived. They didn't like it very well but they took it all right. Monday, we didn't get up so early. After dinner we thought we would like to get a sun burn. So we five girls put on our bathing suits and got into the boat and started off up the lake. We got up by Hubbard's camp and saw Bev. We asked her to come along with us. Then we went back to our camp. All the girls piled out of the boat except Joyce and me. Lets you and I take the boat and go riding, said Joyce. All right, I replied. We were gone about two hours. We had our bathing suits on and by the time we got back, we surely did have a sun- burn on our backs and legs. And were they sore! The rest of the x eek was very eventful and at the end of the week x ;e hated to leave, but we had to. We were all broke'1 so we had to go home. —Mary Towle, '53
