Day 19 - Wilderness Warrior Spotted

30 Day Blogging Challenge – Day 19

Last night here and we are going to have an interesting evening before moving on to our next location which is Mammoth Hot Springs Terrace. We will be leaving after a late breakfast, packing up our stuff so it can be transported for us.

But we have a special request, and since I am a volunteer guide and getting fired is not an issue... I am going to take him up on his request.

"Well... then what? I think we should have a costume contest. ~Aino Minako~ may beat us all because she has experience with making her own costumes for stuff like this, but I'm still willing to give it a go. Pretty please, Lyn 30 Day Camp Guide , can we have a costume contest party? I think we should have on where we have to dress up using only materials that you can find in nature. Doesn't that sound fun? I may or may not be trying to see everyone half naked. "Charlie & Cinn
well, are you up to his challenge? It's in your ball park....
"We should totally do this and then have like a campfire where we dance around the fire and OHH we should do like a horror movie costume contest and tell ghost stories or something? The winner should get a prize of some sort. You wanna? Eh? Lyn? You wanna?"

I am game. Though I never been much for dress up, but for you all.... sure, what the hey. To use items found in nature could be interesting.... should be fun just to see what everyone comes up with.

I would try to come up with some kind of flower wreath for my hair. Smudgy black under my eyes like a football player. I would do my hair up in a braid and tuck in more wild flowers. Next I would create a swath of leaves and berries into a ribbon, like the women wear on the pageants. If I did two it would cover my chest - in a criss cross fashion - but I am still wearing clothes underneath (for modesty and the itch factor). Over my pants, I would find discarded bits of tree bark and attach them like armour - I am a wilderness warrior. Hear my roar.

I am expecting this party to be a lot of fun and I doubt we will get to bed early. The animals will stay away... though I think we still need to adhere to the quiet hours even in this remote spot. Probably also depends on whether our neighbouring campers want to join in.

It might be interesting to make up a story for my wilderness warrior...
I come form a long line or wilderness warriors....

I understand our stuff is being transported.... are we biking or hiking the next trek. Could be pretty, either way. Glad to see we get another night here. I get to work more on my Wilderness Warrior and her story....
