Garrett's 16th birthday

What takes 10 lbs of hamburger, 5 cans of manwich, b-b-q sauce and a cake? Garrett's 16th birthday for 26 kids (the majority were boys)at Ft. Casey on Whidbey Island. It was great fun and a joy to watch 22 boys coming at you across a field - sure can see how some would find this intimidating, but this group was great. Played capture the flag for three hours (until dusk - we were the last ones out!) and we ate in the rain, but who cares? They all had a blast and so did I - can't believe he is 16 already.
