Every year, my family travels to Andersonville National Historic Site to help place flags at each headstone. With over 18,000 people laid to rest there, it's quite a task. . . .

Yeah, so I'm compromising.
I blogged camp life my first year working here....sorta. I kept up with it a bit, but my readers were mainly from a site I participated in that was the complete opposite . . .

One of the kids that I worked with at camp (a very long time ago) that sticks out in my memory - now that I am making a decided effort, anyway - is Joey.
He was such a great kid - deserved so much better . . .

It's getting to the point where it's time to start packing. We leave for Mackinaw City in 9 days, so I'm making a list (and yes, checking it twice).

So I'm spending my day off in a Starbucks online. Yep, I paid for a day pass, brought my laptop, headphones, etc, and I'm just getting caught up on online things. I don't even like Starbucks . . .

For those that live in the mountains, you all understand that it can get insanely hot during the day and the complete opposite in cold during the night. It's not uncommon for me to wake up with the . . .

Long story short:
My passenger window apparently wasn't rolled up quite all the way the last time it rained. I vacuumed out the water, but it was still damp. A couple days later, I let someone . . .

Yesterday, I found some water repellent spray at the store, and finally broke down to get it. It put me in the mood to set the tent up finally! We've had some gorgeous days, and some really over . . .

Tonight, once more, we had a camp fire. I think this is our 3rd. Soon, we're going to have to buy wood, because right now, we're out of most things bigger than pinky sized. We foraged for wood behind . . .

I used to walk with my dog. I really miss her. But Clella Camp’s musings on her daily walk resounded with memories for me, hitting just the right blend between earthly interactions and heavenly . . .

I've already said that things weren't going as well this year as they have in past years. They were never that smooth to begin with, but this summer is really eating away at me and things just . . .

I was venting to my mom the other night (only the second or third time I've talked to her the entire month I've been out here, so I had a lot built up). I told her that at this point, the two more . . .

You have no idea how excited I am that it's almost over. I've had some good times this year at camp, but for the most part, I've been counting down since near the beginning. Now it's finally . . .
