Day 216 - The Long Awaited Day - CAMP!
Monday, August 04, 2008
My mom arrived around 10:00, then we went to go pick up my step-sister. We headed to French Lick, IN to the French Licks Springs Hotel for lunch at the Grand Colonnade Buffet. The food was delicious, and the selections were amazing. Since we had some time to kill, we ventured over to the West Baden Springs Hotel to see the renovated dome. It was beautiful! The ambiance was so peaceful, the grounds were gorgeous, the music was inspiring. I have several photos that I'll have to post tomorrow. Rachael also bought another Field Guide to Birds. It was 50% off and was a good bargain.
We arrived at camp just before 4:00pm. Rachael doesn't know a single person at camp, but we found out that the dorm chaperone (a college student who was about 20-21) is also a lifelong homeschooler. She was homeschooled from K-12, and has made the Dean's list every semester at college. She expects to graduate from I.U. Southeast in the spring. That was at least a little comforting!
How fun to meet a lifelong homeschooler - and know they ARE able to get along in "the real world." :^D
I must have missed it - is this a church camp or some special camp? Brooke has found a camp she wants to attend - a horse camp in Vermont. Considering we live in LOUISIANA, that'll be a haul. Not this year, but perhaps in the future. My girls have never gone to a camp of any type.
Yes, it's a church camp about 3 hours north of us. She went there last year (before we moved) with her friends. Unfortunately, none of her friends were going this year, but she still wanted to go!
