The gumbo was well received by the 25 people who joined us
for dinner on the island in the Missouri River Saturday night. We cut the
recipe way back and still had an ample amount for the crowd, and enough left
over for the four of us to have it for dinner Sunday night.
Having it on the island worked well. I made it ahead of
time, and we just reheated it on the camp stove when we got there. Ann made the
rice right before we left, and then wrapped the pot in a couple of blankets,
and it stayed hot until dinner time.

The weather was perfect, mild enough so that the desert
island didn’t get too hot, but warm enough to get in the water, which is
important when you’re using a fiberglass boat with a inboard motor to ferry 25
people and camping gear across the Missouri River.
