Ally Ally Ally ally oom qua quee.. we're the Indianheaders Ally ally oomqua

Last sunday I left for camp Indianhead I rode with one of my good friends Brittany. The ride was fun but it seemed to take forever because we wanted to get there.

Thursday was the banquet almost everyone dressed up for that.

On Wednesday was skit night our skit was rip offs of various broadway plays. I was the Vampire of the Cinema "Phantom of the Opera". My cabin got first place on our skit

Christine and the vampire. "Brittany and me".

Tuesday and Wednesday Lauren, Christina, and I went canoing. Tuesday it was beautiful outside with no wind so we expected Wednesday would be the same. We got out in our canoe and it was kinda hard to paddle but we could handle it because we were on the easy side of the Island. Once we got to the other side it was another story we had started out toward the front of all the kayaks, -we were the only ones canoing- but by that time we were at the end, the only person behind us was Maggie who was the counseler in charge of making sure everyone kept up.

Maggie eventually passed us and told us to hurry up. She waited at the next corner of the Island for us so we were in her line of sight. We weren't able to get anywhere because the wind was pulling us backwords. Maggie yelled at us to hurry several times but we tried yelling that we needed help but she couldn't hear us because she was up wind from us.

Finally she turned around and came back to see what was keeping us and we told her we could only go like a foot a minute. Maggie said "I know it's really hard but I'm going to need you girls to give it all your strength". We agreed gave it all our "strenth" and tipped over.

So we pushed the canoe swimming behind it up to the Island When we reached it we stood in the disgusting weeds and tipped the canoe over and dumped out the water. Maggie rode in the canoe with the other girls back and I took her kayak.

It's raining it's pouring....

We left for last Thursday with the intent of camping till Sunday. Thursday night my friends from Hawaii, Christina, her mom and her sisters -who were in Minnesota for awhile to visit some of her family- came to camp with us we went swimming that night and Grandpa and Grandma came to visit us. On Friday Morning we went on a hike to see Ramsey falls.

It is really pretty at that campground and they have lots of nice hiking trails.







There is also a zoo.





Friday afternoon Christina and her family left to go back to New Ulm Elsie and I went with them. That evening we went swimming and then the beach we were at, closed because of Thurnder storm warnings. Ann, Christina's mom, came to pick us up because she had seen the clouds. By the time we got into the car there were Tornado warnings we went to pick up pizza and went back to Christinas house.

We got some kind of big hail. Sorry the picture isn't that great.

Saturday Ann dropped us off at the campground and we got ready for dad's cousin Ambers wedding. After the wedding more Tornado Warnings. We cleaned up camp in the rain and went to Grandmas. That's all I have time to write now but later I'll tell you about camp.
