The photo is of our Dutch Oven when I first put it on the coals and then when the Chicken Pot Pie was finished. It came out delicious. My missus is mastering the art of Dutch Oven cooking.
Son2 and his GF were with us for lunch and dinner today. They left to go back to the big city right after we had our dessert of S'Mores. We expect to hear that they are home any time now.
Tomorrow it will be just my missus, me, and the dogs. We plan to take it easy and do not much of anything. Ha! As if my missus would allow that. I'm sure there will be some long walks around the campground and maybe a trip to town. In between, I hope to get some writing done on a new project I've been toying with.
I hope y'all are having a great weekend. What have you been up to so far?

Your dinner sounds amazing. I want to make homemade chicken pot pie soon.
Ooh a new project!? New book?

Right now it's just in the idea stage. I've already decided to change the whole direction of the story twice. The character I thought was going to be the main character might be about to have a tragic, fatal accident, and a new character I brought in shows a lot of promise.

@thislittlepennyearns If this story works out, it will be very different from my other Buzby Beach books. For one thing, the characters don't live on Buzby Island, but some of them work part-time jobs there and they all hang out there when not at school.

@DWDavis Oooh. I'm intrigued. I wrote a little bit today. But then gone distracted. Hopefully I'll get back in the habit of writing again.

When you say camp fire was this an outdoor thing - in your garden may be? And what is S'mores?

I have not tried Dutch Oven cooking but it sounds great your way. I am eager to start my project of getting together poems for my second book of poems. I have one out and I want to do another. I figure if I can get it done by some time late September or in October I will have a book ready for Christmas gifts that is if anyone will be interested. My first book came out at the beginning of this year and has been doing good and not so good.

@DWDavis I need a beta reader for a couple portions to make certain about accuracy, and my son needs to finish the map for it, and then it will be published, so soon. I'd like it before summer ends, or at least before the end of September. We'll see what happens.

Shopping, lunch or brunch and cooking. Dealing with leftovers. I mowed a bit. Nothing too spectacular. This is the first time in ten days that hubby has felt well enough to leave the property, so it was a good day.

My sons learned about Dutch Oven cooking in Scouts. We did quite a lot when we tail-gate camped. My missus is new to it, but has taken to it with gusto.
I'm glad your SIL is in remission and they are camping again. We do enjoy the comforts of our caravan.
