Only in Florida
Only in Florida (otherwise known as God's waiting room) can you fine 2 dicarded empty tubes of Bengay on the sidewalk. If only I'd snagged a picture of that. Instead look at this: These are everywhere I look down here. It's begining to look a lot like Christmas ALREADY!!

Hello muddah, hello faddah...
Here I am at.. Camp Granada
HELLO FROM JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA! Today was the first day of Camp Broadway and my dogs are BARKIN'! It was a crazy day and I learned a lot. I feel much better prepared for tomorrow and beyond. :)
Working for Camp Broadway and temping at the Fresh Air Fund a few months back has given me food for thought. Why did I never go to camp when I was a kid? I never went swimming in a lake full of other campers or slept in a log cabin full of bunk beds. Why not? Ultimately I think it's because 1) I didn't really want to go to camp. I was too shy. 2) We lived in rual Tennessee and we would go "camping" as a family and 3) we didn't go to church so there were not "youth group" organized camping ventures or Christian camps in my life. If there was ever a camp I did want to go to it was Space Camp! Of course, I still want to go to Space Camp. I wonder if there's a program for adults? Hmm.
In any case, I'm totally in camp now. It's not Space Camp. It's not wilderness camp (although I could go swimming in the hotel pool). I'm totally immersed in theater camp it's pretty amazing. Watching the kids discover their own talents and have fun singing and dancing is a lot of fun! Don't get me wrong- it's not a stress free work environment but it is certainly a rewarding one.
