"
"Chug-chug!" went the automobile.
"Bow-wow!" barked the dog Splash.
"Good-bye!" called Bunny and Sue to some of their little boy and girl
friends who had gathered to wave farewell. "Good-bye! Good-bye!"
Then the big automobile rolled out into the road. The Browns were off to
camp.
CHAPTER VI
PUTTING UP THE TENTS
"How long will it take us to get to Lake Wanda, Mother?" asked Bunny
Brown, as, with Sue and Uncle Tad, he and his mother sat in the back of
the big car that rumbled along the road.
"Oh, we ought to get there about noon," she answered.
"Just in time to eat," said Uncle Tad. "I suppose you children will be
good and hungry, too."
"I'm hungry now," said Sue, "I wish I had a jam tart, Mother."
"So do I!" put in Bunny.
"I'll give you one in a few minutes," Mrs. Brown said. "We did have an
early breakfast, and I suppose you are hungry now."
"Will we have to cook dinner as soon as we get to camp?" Bunny wanted to
know.
"If we do I'll help," said Uncle Tad with a smile. "I can build a
campfire. When I was a soldier, in the army, down South, we used to
build campfires, and roast potatoes when we couldn't find anything else
to eat.
