Life continues past the months of June, July, and August and so must the counselors of Day Camp.

Do you ever have one of those moments?


...where you say to yourself "all of my life from now until June should be bent on trying to come back next summer." I did. About 15 minutes ago I read Gator's post and used the link to explore his flickr account. Seeing pics from last year and this year really showed me that (1) I've grown up a bit, (2) DC is the best place on earth, (3) if I understood minute by minute how much I love you guys DURING the summer I would probably hug you guys without release, and (4) I never know when I'm going to long for something that is so far away. I haven't been calling or emailng because of the fear that DC floodgates may open and I may become emotionally unstable on the phone. I love you guys. I miss you guys. Life is good here, but it's always greener on the other side.

no say, in fact, I'll probably be in summer school! & I'll probably be absent at New Years because my mother and I (Lord willing) are going to Louisiana to help with the relief. I'm bummed.

I remember talk of Scout's. I'm not trying to volunteer Scout, I just remember it being mentioned. My gut tells me it will be [God willing] at the Herm.

Ahem: let's keep it in Nor Cal, 'k?

6:14 PM

 
Blogger Jonathan said...

I think we should have it in the middle of the state so it gives the majority of the people the same driving distance. That and it was in north cal last year. I don't mind driving but its goinng to be hard if its really far.

Blogger venessa said...

mount hermon isn't too far though, is it?

11:43 AM

 
Blogger Matthew K. said...

I am definitely in, no matter how far away it is. I'll take a nor-cal car down as far as it needs to go. I mean, by the time I am back in the states it'll be a solid 3 1/2 months since I've driven, so I'll be dieing to be on the road again. Let's just hope I remember to drive on the right side, not the left...
