Jimmy's camp pictures
I don't think I posted much about Jimmy going to Scout camp earlier this month. So that's what I will post today--pictures from his trip. The camp he went to offered many activities--sort of mini High Adventures for every day of the week. Jim went with for a few days and said that he'd recommend the camp to other groups.
I don't have much explanation for the pictures (I just wanted to post SOMETHING today and life was boring yesterday so when I saw these pictures on the computer, I thought "I'll post these!") since I wasn't there, but I might add a comment or two.
The campers (Jimmy, Ethan, Dan, and Dan's dad, who came up on Wednesday to relieve Jim, who went for the first three or four days)
Camp breakfast of Champions:
"Why yes, I do miss my wife. But this can of pop will keep me company for now."
Getting ready to go out on a sailboat. He never works this hard at home!
Jumping Rope: He's doing it wrong.
Ropes course. He looks like he's playing on telephone wires (aren't they obsolete now, what with the proliferation of cell phones?)
Making s'mores. Look at the size of that chocolate slab. When I was a kid, mom let us have only one little rectangle from the Hershey bar. One little rectange! He has half a bar on there! Oh the humanity! But I must say, he's roasted that marshmallow almost to perfection. I don't like burnt marshmallows.
I purposely did not include photos from Jimmy's biking accident where he scraped up his leg good and bloody. Nor did I include the picture of Jimmy with a smear of blood on his face, presumably from squishing a sated mosquito. Bleagh!
Today: get a haircut, check out a book, ship a package, write for my Creative Writing class, call a bookstore, shower, weed in the garden, etc etc etc. See why I chose to blog about Jimmy's camping trip?
