On days 17-22 of summer...

My true love and my boy stayed at home (and no, they're not the same person - but close!),
while my girls and I headed off to Drama Camp!

"Camp is for the Birds" was the title of the creation and we had a wonderful time learning the local birds, trees and vegetation in order to tell their story!  The children transformed into the birds and trees and guided the unwitting audience right into the centre of their story!

We braved a torrential storm and a power outage on the second to last day of camp (final rehearsal day) but things managed to come together in the end.  It does always seem to do that.

Power outage...means no dinner!
(except the camp cook is VERY resourceful and cooked her prepared
ham and scalloped potatoes over an open fire!!!)
