Camp!

It's that time of year again............church camp time. Our church does our own kids and teen camp at a nearby state park. The campground has always reminded me of the campground in the movie The Parent Trap. I loved that movie and still do. Haley Mills was my favorite actress when I was growing up.
Even though it is a pretty rustic camp, the kids and adults all seem to love it and are very excited to get back to it every year. There is no reception for cell phones so we don't have to tell the teens not to bring them.....they just won't work. We have air conditioning in some of the adult dorms but most of the kids dorms don't have it but they don't really seem to mind. It's hot but most of the campground is very shaded, there is swimming, volleyball, softball, swimming, lots of cold watermelon....did I mention swimming. And of course the main reason we come is to strengthen our relationship with Jesus. I think the adults get as much as the kids. It is a very rewarding experience with lots of hard work but I love it.

  1. Sounds like a good time!

    I bought some Hayley Mills paper dolls at an estate sale a few weeks ago. ($1.00) I was thrilled.
