Rockport Reservoir Yurt Campout

Ok, so I can hardly call it a "campout" if we slept in Yurts, but there wasn't hardly any snow so we couldn't do our regular Snow Cave Campout this year.  I don't count the night as a camping night either if they're sleeping in a Yurt.  But it was a fun outing!
We played football out on the ice (frozen over reservoir).  We found out the ice was 2 feet thick!

We tried a new treat around the campfire this time.  It's called Woofum's.  (we called them "doughboys" when I was growing up).  You take refrigerator biscuits and wrap them around a 1" diameter wooden dowel, and cook it over the fire.  When it's done you pull it off and have a nice cup made out of roll, that you fill with honey, or cherry pie filling, whipped cream, pudding, etc.  It was a hit!  We went through 6 packs of refrigerator biscuits!
