Camp just gets insane towards the endbig trips Color War and the like all take up a lot of time and energy and I don't have a lot of extra to spend writing. However the past few weeks have been awesome. Color War ended last night and we were all crying because that means camp is basically over. 4 more days for counselors and then it's back to the real wor http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-80785.html but that's mostly because of how busy we are. We've had The Newlywayne Game VISITING DAY goodness that was a long day Sounds of Wayne Halloween Party I was a button and tomorrow is my second to last day off. I think we're just gonna chill and not worry about anything because on our last day off we went to Ithaca and driving anywhere more than an hour away is stressful for many people involv http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-75338.html no time to type. have done many fun things. wheel of fortune. night at the races. day off again in which we were pulled over and ticketed i bought clothes and we had a disco. and the 4th was really nice but different from any other i've had. lots of pretty fireworks. ttyl. miss you all. thanks for the gumby stationery mommy. http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-72377.html We experienced a few beautiful days at camp but then this morning of course my day off AND 4th of July it started raining again.

Since the campers arrived it has been gogogo ALL THE TIME My campers are great very cute but it is a LOT of work. My age group requires a LOT of attention and energy but I'm having a lot of fun. I didn't post about all the activities we've had but I'll kind of just list them off square dance and bowling party with boys' side counselors staf http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-69805.html Orientation started today and it was mostly meetings but some of it was really good. We went over why everyone was there and I cried because some people have really meaningful reasons as to why they're here. Then we met with our groups and now some of us are going to watch Wet Hot American Summer to get into camp mode. We met the boys' side counselors and they are just like everyone saidmostly http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-67533.html Yesterday the internet was not working so I couldn't update. Sorry about that. However I can tell you that I spent all day working on the waterfront in the pool with some of the other girls and that was the last day of precamp. Today was a day off and this morning a few of us went to breakfast and then to Skinner's Falls and lay out played card games and chilled. A bunch of other girls who ha http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-67281.html I think it's our fifth day of work or something...Anyway last night there was a mad game of Bippity Bippity Bop which Heidi and I taught everyone followed by some Egyptian Ratscrew and the like. Today for work I weeded the backstop of the softball field and a few of us scraped paint and primed the wooden fence by the parking lot. Good times. I also managed to get primer all over myself...Tomorro http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-66831.html Yesterday was our day off which was really nice. We went to WalMart I know I know but it's the only place nearby where we could get the stuff we needed...no Target and got some necessities and then went to Villa Como aka VC's and had some of the greatest pizza. I don't think it was as good as No Anchovies but it was still really good. The setting was freakyvery much like The Shining. http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-66597.html So yesterday basically all day I scraped paint off the steps of the dining hall with a heat gun. Then we sanded them. And since today is our day off we all went to a pub in Hancock which is in NY. There are two different laws regarding bars between PA and NYPA you must be over 21 to be in the bar whereas in NY you can be 18 and be in the bar but still 21 to drink. It was a lot of fun BabyT a http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-66272.html If you thought moving rocks down a hill was fun you'll love what we did today It actually wasn't that bad either. I think they don't want to really tire us out before camp. Bad idea. We moved tarps from the softball field flipped stuff the pool bottom weededraked the volleyball court and then SCRAPED A LOT OF PAINT O Tomorrow we're going to paint half the deck of the dining hall and I http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-65879.html I guess technically yesterday was day one. But we didn't do any work. We took the redeye UGH to JFK where we slept in the airportI felt homelessand then got picked up. In the van we met a bunch of our coworkers who had also flown in. After missing the turn to get to Newark Airport we picked up two more but then one had forgotten her purse and by the time we got back someone had stol http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/Pennsylvania/Wayne-County/Preston-Park/blog-65662.html
