Another Camp

I've never been one to farm the kids out to every sort of summer camp imaginable, and prefer more time just hanging out and relaxing and being mellow. I understand how parents who work need a place to park their kids while they're out earning the big bucks, but that doesn't necessarily apply to us.

As it turns out, however, we have been very active in the camp scene, and last week the kids took part in a local one sponsored by HCC, which is a major force behind a lot of great activities. Kudos to JM for all his efforts.

The camp in question was Clown Camp, and it was not only local (right in town), but it was free. How can you beat that? A&N were excited about it and had a ton of fun, aided by the fact that many of their friends took part, as well. It was basically neighborhood kids and they learned about miming and juggling, which kind of made me a little jealous because I've always wanted to juggle.

The camp lasted a week, and the kids loved it. I think new bonds were made, and A even got her pic on the cover of the Valley News. Not bad. I can't tell you how many people came up to us and commented on what a great shot it was.

Now, we have one more summer camp to survive, and then we can start enjoying a nice, relaxing summer.

Then again, maybe not.

Until the next time, thanks for reading, and thanks to Dani Simmonds for the pic.
