and he ruled kind of wisely over Poland Spring Campground.  The Moose King was in charge of all the fun stuff like

sword playing, and jousting with noodles and treasure hunting and viking ship races and scavenger hunts . . .

(gasp, gasp, gasp)

sword and shield making at arts and crafts, medieval games, waterballoon slingshot . . .

But they did high five!

And we had a lot of fun!

The Red Knight and the Blue Knight showed up again.   Those two . . . forever arguing.

This time, it was all about  . . .

They fought hard and long, but only one could win.

In a brilliant and final move, the Red Knight tripped the Blue Knight, pushed him down into the hay with his foot, and sword poised . . . he declared himself the winner!

Well fought, Red Knight.  Well fought.

So now, we’re all decorated for Halloween!!

What do you think of my costume?
