10 Things: Cabin Alder

Just a side note, sorry I haven't posted much lately things have been incredibly busy. Life to get back to normal and in a couple of weeks.
In the meantime, here are some things I remember about Cabin Alder.

  1. The door spring was weak, so the wind would blow the door open and shut it night.
  2. The cabin was at the edge of a hill, so it was up on blocks to keep it level. I would always have to look under there to make sure campers weren't hiding.
  3. Again was also under the trees, so it night, it was really nice when the wind was gently blowing, you could hear the wind blowing through the leaves.
  4. Because of the cabin's placement the speakers on top of the Lodge weren't pointed at it. So was quieter than the rest of the cabins on the Hill.
  5. Sometimes I would have to say something to the counselors living in the Boy's Shack, because when they get rowdy you can hear everything that was said.
  6. Fred Hornback was assigned to Cabin Number Two or Buckeye, whatever you'd like to call it for several sessions.
  7. It always seemed like the walk to the Lodge or the pool or to the Playhouse was shorter from Cabin Alder
  8. The walk to the 8 1/2 was naturally longer.
  9. I think Cabin Alder was my favorite cabin on the Hill.
  10. I don't think we had a clothesline on the back of cabin alder.
    See you soon,
    Bob

Wouldn't it have been amazing if we had the good fortune to celebrate a season like Halloween while at Fort Scott?

(In between trick or treaters here at my house)

More to come...Appreciate this blog and your efforts to date. Ready to jump in soon. Many warm memories from mid-seventies. Can't fully explain how much I treasure the memories and miss the place. Back soon...
