Chapter 265: Plans to Make

Feeling sheepish about her emotional display the previous night, Jackie blushed when Scott came downstairs for breakfast.

“Good morning, campers,” he greeted the kids, who dawdled over cold cereal at the kitchen table. He gave Jackie a wink.

“Hi, Mr. Scott,” Grant responded. “Did all your stuff get burned up in the fire?”

“No, just a few old clothes. Your mom and I brought my truck here. All my good stuff was in there.”

“Breakfast is a little sketchy this morning,” Jackie apologized, risking a look in Scott’s direction.

He grinned at her. “If you can point me in the direction of bread and peanut butter, I’ll be all set.”

“Ew!” Emma exclaimed. “A peanut butter sammich for breakfast?”

“You should see what I eat when I’m out camping. Grubs, mushrooms, minnows—anything I can find.” He mugged for the kids.

“Ewwww!” Both children squealed with laughter.
