English Camp, San Juan Island
We
luckily happened on a weekend re-enactment of life at the camp.
To keep the
troops busy, cooking contests were held ... using wood stoves & cast
iron pots. At our cook-off, lamb was the centerpiece, accompanied by locally
grown foods.
The time
limit for meal prep was 15 minutes! Tasters ate and commented on the meals
produced: lamb curry, bread pudding; lamb stew, apple cobbler.
The Kaiser determined the boundary between
the United States & Canada
to be Haro Strait.
San Juan Island
was American soil.
The English troops withdrew, as did the Krasnos
from Friday Harbor.
