Fire is easy; put your hand out palm-up, point your fingers upwards and wiggle them to vaguely resemble flickering flames. Ent .. may be problematic. They do walk, so perhaps a pair of fingers "walking"?

Good campout all. Even if it was damp, drizzly, and soggy. It was complete with a roadside evaluation and conclusion that can be expounded upon by the Gypsie.

If you ever want to really appreciate your bus spend a couple nights sleeping in a tent in the clouds in a mummy bag. Man was I missing my comfy bus bed last night.

Ents are inhabitants of Tolkien's Middle Earth. They are trees that the Elves awakened during the First Age. Also known as Shepards of the Forest, by the Third Age their numbers and territory had dwindled to Fanghorn forest, a small remnant of a greater forest that stretched across southern Beleriand. Even in their diminished state, they banded together and played a vital role in the War of Ring when they attacked Isengard and destroyed Saruman's base of power. They're release of the Huorns eliminated the combined army of Wildmen and Uruk-Hai that had laid siege to Helm's Deep.

Hope that helps.
For more information regarding Ents, read more J.R.R. Tolkien.

Only if I get to bring the bus I find in a field the day of the campout.

The best navigators aren't sure where they're going until they get there. And then they're still not sure.

Dates? With advance warning I should be able to take a couple days. My problem this time around was more .. too short of notice to get the time off.
