    I Want To Go Camping! (Part 2)

    When I Finally Go Camping!

    Grandpa tells the rest of the story of a time he really wanted to go camping. In Part 2, Grandpa now has enough platelets, and finally goes camping with his brother in Canada; where they meet several mosquitoes, a skunk, and not enough fish.

    Gorf is worried that Grandpa quits camping all together. Marshmallow knows better. All are encouraged to listen, laugh, and think and wonder what would you do when you finally get to do what you wanted to do, and, worked so hard for, and, it doesn’t turn out nearly as nice as you thought it would.

    I Want to Go Camping! (Part 1)

    Grandpa tells the story of a time he really wanted to go camping.  A disastrous turn in his health threatens the trip.  Grandpa’s platelets were mysteriously and quite completely gone!  Listen to his intense efforts to to get those tiny little cells called platelets back up to normal safe levels.

    Marshmallow, the raccoon and Gorf, the frog, discuss what they think is evidence of Grandpa’s stubbornness.  All  are encouraged to listen, laugh, and think and wonder what would you do if you wanted to do something and were told no, and, knew you shouldn’t do it, but still really wanted to do that something.
