Hi y'all.
On to ' Ol Hallowed Eve'. we kids knew as Halloween. I remember heading out after dark because Mum made us wait until dusk. It gave her the time to somehow magically find all the props,and the paint to suit us up in some sort of rag tag costume. when we left the house we thought we were the best outfit in the camp. Too funny. ... Today all the small boys are Star Wars and girls are Emma and Elsa. In the mid fifties we were all Gene Autry or Roy Rogers or Lone Ranger or Red Ryder and Little Beaver. I will leave it to a Shilo girl to reflect on how their costumes were put together. ... Off we went with the largest pillow case we could muster out. At the end of the evening a young man was measured by the gross weight and bulk of those white sacks.
More than one Camp Shilo Halloween evening was chilly and cold and often a rain cloud or maybe a snowfall. Other times that night turned out to be very clear with stars. One year as I made my way towards Kingston Ave. the sky started to fall and we all ducked for cover under porch roofs because it started to hail the size of golf balls. I still remember every year the vision of that night.

October 1962 - Camp Shilo. I am in Grade 12 with classmates Betty Hunt, Blair, Lawrence Rowland, Ann Davies, Rod McLeod, George Shallcross, Judy Pachal(sp?)Tanis Johnston, Doug Jordan, Gary and several others (memory is toast). Mr Birch brought a TV into the room. We watched the Cuban Missile Crisis unfold before our eyes. We were an hour away from a nuclear war! I had joined the army reserve and as a Lance Bombardier, I expected to be called out. I cannot describe the fear that came to mind. Fortunately, Pres Kennedy and the Russians came to their senses. This year,with two nut cases, one in the US and another in North Korea potentially sparring off,I hope sanity prevails.

Bump here. .....OK guys and gals for some culinary fun let's exchange favorite soup recipe. It is that time of year. Colder days are warm soups and breads for lunch. My split pea soup is a favorite around here. Many times I include the kitchen sink. One of our friends here gave us a recipe for lentil soup and another for some sort of hamburger vegetable soup. My mum was a Newfie and all of our soups were heavy with fish or corn beef and cabbage and so on. Rabbit stews from the local Shilo wild rabbit supply. My Dad bartered with the farmers around Shilo and outlying area and the greens from the produce ended up in the pot. Homemade breads and hot soup on Shilo winter days was Mmmm. mmmmmm good.
