Great weather, Great events, and lots of fun by all. I knew we were going to do great in the dutch oven cooking contest and was not supprised with 1st place. The pumpkin-pecan cobbler had to be rewriten at the last min. when the 12in dutch oven was misplaced and a 10" had to be used. It kinda dripped out the top during cooking but several Dragons stood watch and licked of the sides before it leaked on the coals.
Dragon patrol also took 2nd place in the gateway contest. I was supprised that the 1:06 time on the fire starting contest didn't also win, I guess the other troops were realy supper fast. P.S. the next time I ask for a fire to be started , I now know it only takes you a little more than one min. to do it.
