First Day of School

7th and 4th grade.

Camping after Camp

After camp, Phoebe got to camp for a night. What's one more night before sleeping in her own bed?

We hiked to Cummins Falls the next morning. Half of the hike is a steep decline, and the other us up a riverbed.

But at the end of it is an amazing waterfall and swimming hole.

Phoebe on the falls.

Warming up from an early swim in very cold water.

Picking up Phoebe from Camp

Back to pick up Phoebe after a month away...

Phoebe somewhere up there in the closing play.

Lots of camp songs.

So many long goodbyes.

Dropping Frank off at Camp

Frank did two weeks at camp for the first time, all the way in the mountains of North Carolina.

He was told to write something on this necklace when he got there, so he wrote "I'm gonna destroy you."  Oh brother...

Ducks on the dock.

Mess hall.

Mom and dad got to explore for a day too.

Then we popped in on Phoebe in the middle of her month away on the way back home.  Gone two weeks and she was as tall as mom!
