Camp just isn't "camp" without...
joyful first-time dunks into the cold clear lake water,
a nature lesson from Grampie,
a puppy in paradise,
a bag full of yarn,
a collaboratively-built family puzzle,
a whole lot of melmac,
stopping to check the crop that will be ready next time we visit,
a bucket full of bug repellent...and the mosquitoes that laugh at them,
a whole lot of s'mores,
reading by flashlight,
marveling at a landscape just a little bit different than the one at home,
and finding a little bit of peace among the trees - and each other.
