Oh, and I am stealing this camping bread idea! We are going to Lake George in 2 weeks, and I'm always looking for creative things we can cook other than hotdogs and burgers. (we have french toast, banana boats, and bison burgers on the menu so far.)

Can't say my editing really deserved a 10,000 word count, but hey, I'll take it. Congrats to everyone else, though! Terrific job.

Ya, the being able to create a private cabin was really nice. I think it helped a lot.

Absolutely. Meeting random people in a cabin was interesting at times, but most of the cabins never did anything. For results, I think it helped a huge amount just being able to hang out with people we know, trust, believe in, and that, well, show up. So many of the old cabins were like ghost towns.

I liked the private cabin, too. When you have a bunch of strangers, it always takes time to get to know them, and with only a month to write, that takes up a good chunk of camp. Much easier when you know everybody - or almost everybody.

Of course, if it hadn't been for looking for cabin mates the old way, we wouldn't have met each other. Of course, that is still an option for people who don't have a group.

However, even if you did get a group together, it was so hard to organize and hit or miss if it worked out. So much time was spent on that.
