This is like summer camp

-Wood smoke hangs in the damp night air.
-Showers are a luxury even if you never feel completely clean.
-Clothes dried in the sun are either crusty dry or slightly mildewed.
-Bedtime is often by candlelight.
-Exhaustion hits in the midday heat.
-Every moment feels like the makings of a memory.
-And there's horseback riding.

Better than camp—you get to bunk with your boyfriend.

Tell us more about the horseback riding--what was the occasion? How was it? Did Scout ride?

i tried line drying monday, as soon as i got the sheets up on the line it started to rain. and they dried all crusty. i kind of like that in a way though... i kind of associate it with being Good. you know, using less energy, and helping mum and dad with the laundry.
