We made hot dogs and Joaquin had several smores for a really healthy dinner. He took off and rode his bike and played with friends for awhile and then all the boys sat around the fire and burned things.
The stake presidency had a short fireside about being a worthy and strong priesthood holder that I thought was very good. Pres. McGhie and his son spoke along with the stake presidency. Joaquin and Curtis started to get a bit restless at the end, but where able to stay in one spot until the end.
Curtis slept in our tent and we did not finally hit the sack until about 11 pm. The next day the stake provided breakfast and Joaquin had a couple of cups of milk chocolate and looked at his oranges like he might want to eat one. The stake then had supplies to build rockets powered by compressed air. Joaquin was going for a lighting-bolt motif and it turned out pretty cool and Joaquin was stoked. His rocket did not go straight up like most, his went up about 20 feet and then flew horizontal for another 30 or 40 yards.
As we were getting ready to leave, Joaquin did not want to leave. It was a good time. Thanks to the stake and leaders for this.
Notice how dirty that jacket is. Also, loving on his rocket.
