While traveling on our way to the woods
I noticed a big thunderhead forming on the horizon.
The big cloud quickly mushroomed.
By the time we reached the campground, the sky was
filled with potential storm.
Then summer rain.
..and the big cloud moved on to dump elsewhere.
The loaded mini-van pulled into the only remaining campsite. Four children leaped from the vehicle and began feverishly unloading gear and setting up the tent. The boys rushed to gather firewood, while the girls and their mother set up the camp stove and cooking utensils.
A nearby camper marveled to the youngsters’ father, “That, sir, is some display of teamwork.”
The father replied, “I have a system — no one goes to the bathroom until the camp is set up.”

There were these two guys out hiking in the woods when they came upon an old, abandoned mine shaft. Curious about its depth they threw in a pebble and waited for the sound of it striking the bottom, but they heard nothing. They went and got a bigger rock, threw it in and waited. Still nothing. They searched the area for something larger and came upon a railroad tie. With great difficulty, the two men carried it to the opening and threw it in. While waiting for it to hit bottom, a goat suddenly darted between then and jumped into the hole! The guys were still standing there with astonished looks upon their faces from the actions of the goat when a man walked up to them. He asked them if they had seen a goat anywhere in the area and they said that one had just jumped in the mine shaft in front of them! The man replied, "Oh, no. That couldn't be my goat, mine was tied to a railroad tie."
