‘really Kim, it was well

done. Is north really that way?)’ Then the resource people prepared

us for a late night ' ' excursion by, encouraging (yes, folks they encouraged us) us to sharpen Our sixth sense. . . Meanwhile, five drinks later, We

«r ' set out to discover the .i ' Great Outdoors. On a ' more serious note, for . the next hour, Dave and-

Bill 5 guided us on a tour of the Murray River. The tour included a nature walk, conplete ' ’ with local ghost stories (really Dr. Mitchell, there are no ghosts). After this inspiring

walk we headed back to

the dining hall for a rousing sing—song. This continued until we

I hate to say it but the guys really buried the girls under their masses of literary, musical, and "miscellaneous" knowledge. For some strange reason the girls

The events of the next day were anti— climactic compared to the sing song, and night walk.. , One thing that I feel should be mentioned however, was the fact that George and Sockie got lost in :the deepest darkest depths of Oak Acres. In actual fact, they were

the way, Brad, when do u expect Debbie will be out of the hospital? Rumors around that she is still suffering from a severe case of exhaustion.

The adventure ended at noon 'with a splendid luncheon consisting of cheap red wine (Donini) an'd Kam v (dogboard sandwiches. Yuk!) . .

So what happened to the steak?

All in all, a right good time was had (but not remenbered) by all. Hopefully the canps of the future will be as good. P.S. Plans for an escape cross-country ski week- end are already in

progress. Stay tuned to your local black board.
