Summer Is Winding Up And It'S Time For The Kids To Go Back

especially during the warm summer months. McGregor, a small town of only about four hundred people, is located in a wooded area with many lakes, streams and river.

For the past nine summers I have spent most of my vacation along the wooded shores of Long Lake at Camp Manitou in New Auburn, Wisconsin. I begin my weekly drive up along the winding, scenic roads, while the drive is quite long, it is completely worth it. This is my only alone time before all of the anxious campers arrive, so taking every chance I can get for some me time is detrimental to maintain my sanity. The concept of summer camp is often misunderstood by people who have never had the experience

Today wasn’t your average day. I woke up with an awkward huge smile that stretched from ear to ear. Obviously I was over anxious, and filled with excitement, like on those rare days your mom treats you to dinner. It was all because today was my best friend’s birthday! From the vibrant blue skies to the aroma of breakfast with unfortunately had passed, that aside today was going to be perfect or so I thought. Let me start by saying the world works in mysteries ways. When my mom and I were in route

As children grow up they always look up to someone special in their life, someone that they can trust and is always there for them. This person is someone they admire and hope to be like someday.

My grandma is one of the most important people in my life and I’m so happy that I have her. Since birth the one person that was always by my side except for my family was my Grandma. Once

are we ready to go yet?!” I asked She yelled back, “Are the water bottles filled up yet?” I sighed. “I filled them up ten minutes ago!” My dad stepped into the room after taking the bin of food out to the car. “Is there anything else you want me to do?” he asked my mom.

when my mother was working with Chipper's mother Sue teaching music lessons in town. The He- Man connection must have been what initially tipped our parents off that we would be good friends. I remember my mom asking me if I wanted to play with this kid who had Castle Greyskull, a large green molded castle that He- Man lived inside of with the other Masters of the Universe.
