Witnesses report seeing a herd of seven to ten wild mountain cows wandering behind Larkspur Cabin and Mountain View Center at around 6:20 to 6:40 in the morning. Initial witnesses were a group of early morning runners: Andrew B., Noah P, and tribe leader Sonic. Andrew reports, \u201cThey showed up after I ran. I was the first to see them, and showed many others.\u201d Noah simply exclaimed, \u201cHoly cow!\u201d<a href=\"http:\/\/jforj.org\/campgilgal\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/sites\/4\/2013\/04\/snapple3.jpg\" rel=\"shadowbox[sbpost-3931];player=img;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-3932 alignright\" alt=\"snapple3\" src=\"http:\/\/jforj.org\/campgilgal\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/sites\/4\/2013\/04\/snapple3-212x300.jpg\" width=\"191\" height=\"270\" srcset=\"http:\/\/jforj.org\/campgilgal\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/sites\/4\/2013\/04\/snapple3-212x300.jpg 212w, http:\/\/jforj.org\/campgilgal\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/sites\/4\/2013\/04\/snapple3.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 191px) 100vw, 191px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Through the morning, many more sightings occurred, especially with tribe leaders heading to morning meeting. Snapple, a tribe leader, reports that she was in \u201ccomplete and \u2018udder\u2019 shock about seeing cows so close to the cabins.\u201d Camp leader Moose, on the other hand, reports feeling very deprived about missing a sighting opportunity due to urgent business. Another camper, Zach S., slept right through the event and reports some feelings of regret. Also regretful was camper Brooke A. Some other campers, however, like David S. and Max C., really just didn\u2019t care.<\/p>\n<p>Along with these sightings, lots of speculation about these bodacious bovines has arisen. How did they get there? Perhaps they came from open range down the road\u2026 Or maybe they rode in on \u201ccow-asakis!\u201d But bad jokes aside, how can we fathom their intentions? When one camper attempted to establish contact with the cows, they apparently gave him the \u201cevil eye.\u201d Does this indicate hostility? Are they just anti-social?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, conspiracies aside, cow sightings ceased at approximately 6:40am. They moved on, leaving scarcely a trace beyond some fresh pie. So what do you think of the cows? Camp Gilgal wants to know!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Andrew B., Age 15 Monday, July 16th.
