Summer Camp

Every year I go with my boys on their boy scout summer camp trip. This year the troop decided to go to southeastern Oklahoma, in the summer. By day three you begin to realize that there was a reason that Lord of the Flies was written about a bunch of school age boys with no adult supervision. Showers were something heard of in a fable, tooth brushes were to be used to clean knives, hairbrushes sat unattended in the bottom of the pack as after all we are wearing hats. In order to save our female members of the family too much mental anguish we do encourage the boys to take the night before we go home shower. You can almost hear the shower floor weep when this is done.

But we are home now, and the camp gear is airing out in the garage, for now.
