singing round the camp fire

26 Kislef

There was a lot of tidying up to do last night but Yov said it was all in hand. He gave the women the night off. The children gathered up the dirty picnic baskets and had an "after party party" around a bonfire. They sang songs about the stars and the great outdoors, toasted bread on sticks to dip in seasoned oil and roasted nuts and grain. It was something very different from anything they had done before. Apparently the sheep shearing gangs do this sort of thing every night when they are traveling round. Yov called it gathering round the camp fire. They loved it!

I gather the men did the all the washing up, well, it is according to Scripture. There's something about Yov, if he suggests something, people just do it. He's not pushy or anything like that, he can even get my Shmuel to wash dishes! I wonder what his secret is?
