Things of Stone and Wood... and a Geyser
... in and out under our canvas shelter, and into their burrows, and the kids delighted in chasing them around shouting "squirrel, squirrel!" The Americans next door were amused by the kids' pronunciation of squirrel, but I think after hearing it a hundred times or so the novelty may have worn off. We relaxed by our own campfire. Cooking some sausages on the open fire grill, and fire-popped popcorn, we shooed away marauding raccoons but didn't spot any bears. All our food locked away ...

In retrospect, I doubt there ...
