Hopefully, you would have had loads of fun at the Staunton River Paddle event, http://coord.info/GC49JAP, and the cookout earlier. Now it's time to settle in for the night. At 8 PM, let's gather around the campfire at the campsite assigned to Nocona 1 for s'mores and to relive the day's paddle.
Bring:
Your own camp chairs and soft drinks of choice; s'mores fixins' will be supplied. If you should also happen to have pointy thingies to roast your marshmallows with, by all means, bring 'em on. And don't forget your smiles! 
Even if you don't plan to spend the night with us, please sit and stay awhile. I'm sure that as with all gatherings of geocachers, there will be stories, yarns, tall tales and outright lies being told. Please, bring your best tales to tell!!
