My idea of camping at this point in my life is an all-inclusive resort complete with tall drinks with little umbrellas

It sounds like your summer camp experience was very fun and it is good to know that you are able to help give fond memories to young people now.

Thanks. Unfortunately the kids I mentor don't have the same opportunity to do the things I did as the camp I went to was a sleep away camp and I was there for 4-6 weeks. But we try to give them as many experiences as we can. Thanks again for reading!

Smile. It was. Thanks for reading!

Magical years! Camping gave me so much, too. I wish I'd had the time to do justice to those memories in an entry this week.

Sometimes it's hard to find the time to do much of anything! Smile. How's KFP these days?

[alycewilson]

He's doing great! Recently, he completed all the requirements to earn the Tiger rank in Cub Scouts, which he'll be receiving in May. Until then -- I'm the den leader -- we're doing some elective units with the Tigers, including a theater unit right now. Last week we made puppets.

Later this month, he'll be playing piano in a school talent show. Very exciting!

Last weekend got away from me because my sister and her daughters were in town, and we spent all our waking hours with them, pretty much.

Busy you! Congrats to KFP! That's great! It's hard to believe he's getting so big! Sounds like you're busy with some fun stuff!

What a wonderful opportunity for you as a kid. It's clear you had a blast, year after year, and those fond memories are very rich, even now. :)

I'd like to take a ride up to see the camp. It's still there although it's gone through a lot of changes over the years. Thanks for your comment!
