There is always tomorrow for school…

I love NTVS ( https://www.thentvs.com/shop ) Original Kicks – beaded moccasins T-shirt. My personal fav Fry Bread and Spam by Dr. Sioux!

So, it was time to head upriver…up Oak Creek. Jake likes to call it an adventure.

Tomorrow is the last day of school this year. Christmas Party and presents.

Lazy Sunday, wake up in the late morning to hear Jake “Dad, I woke up before you”.

I tool around on a golf cart all day at camp growing larger each day. Had to break the chain and see if I could exercise! Yes, chasing Jake on adventures is great but…

We went on a short dam building adventure today! Jake gets frustrated because I took pictures of his dam.

Jake does love to climb up the backside to out tent!

Well, I will leave you all with the last vestiges of fall fruit.

There is no possible victory in defense!

Nice balmy 50 degree evening,

Tomorrow is adventure day according to Jake! This week was an adventure/ both of us sick and competing to see who blew chunks more! I won 14 to 9. Worked everyday through it and up all night 3 nights – taking care of Jake!

Every night we end our prayers with “Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy” especially on us tonight! Amen. As we drift off to sleep listening to Ancient Faith Radio blessed to know our Lord through the Russian Orthodox Church.

People, eclectic people! From crystal crunchers to granola munchers, we are blessed to meet wonderful souls here at camp.

Last night Jake was remembering all the campers that had touched his young life in his prayers.

Turtle Man – blessed our lives twice bringing his tortoise (Tortoise Man doesn’t sound cool) and dog. His love was epic and his gift for gardening legend.

Melissa taught Jake how to juice. It was so funny because the first year Melissa was here – she only went to Whole Foods to get her oranges. When she came back this last year, Jake said “dad we have to go get oranges,” so of course I went to Safeway to buy a bundle, and he insisted on going to Whole Foods and getting non-GMO Oranges. The things I learn from my six year old!

I am blessed to have wealth of stories to entertain my campers and have been known to be loquacious. Well, until Jake says come on dad !

The best nights are when my friends come and jam! This takes me back to my childhood – nothing better!

This awesome Aussie Meatball!

A year ago in April. I asked Jake if he wanted a motorcycle or a puppy for his birthday on the 16th! I guess it is obvious what he chose!!

Meatball is the Camp dog. Meatball herds Javelina away from the trash, cans and across Camp. He was featured on a TikTok video herding, but I don’t have TikTok.

So, one of my good friends put together this great video of her dog and Meatball.

Oh, how did meatball get his name? The first night Meatball was home, I made meatballs from scratch, sat down with a big plate and who jumped into my lap and onto the plate – meatballs all over!
