With the morning over it is time for the one-utensil lunch, which means everyone can only use one utensil to eat. Lunch was pretty easy, though, since it was only grilled cheese and tomato soup. After lunch, it is time for some me time so the campers can rest up and be ready for their … Continue reading Beautiful Thursday continued

JCITs slept in (for a mere 10 minutes)! Feeling adequately rested, we ate breakfast and did our camp kaper. Then we had a bit of time to clean and pack our suitcases for our weekend away.
