Chef & Camp Cook

3 Followers

For nearly 50 years I\'ve had two culinary careers -- one that paid the bills and the other imagined. Growing up in Fresno and Bakersfield in the 1960s, I attended Camp San Joaquin in Sequoia National Forest. To me the cook and his assistant had the best job. Where else could I pursuit my passion for cooking and my love of the mountains at the same time, I reasoned? Lord willing, I\'ll continue to pursue my love for camp cooking. Add in a railroad or two, and you have the perfect retirement vocation for this retired Navy chef. MSCS Steven C. Karoly, USN, Retired
