Pre-camp is done
Well, I made it through the 10 days of staff training. It's going to be a fun year; there are ten returning staff plus an international staff from Germany, England, Sweden, South Africa, and Australia. I can't wait for campers to get here though because then my job will get easier. My partner in crime (Lunchbox) and I had to teach the whole staff how to operate the Low Ropes Course and then we took them all to the climbing wall and the high ropes course. 40 staff + 5 days + lots of other stuff to do = a very tired Rocky.
On the homefront, we got a new puppy; a newfoundland/golden retriever that we named Freddie. He's like a mini wolly mammoth. My younger sister Candace is now driving the tofu-burner (Hyundai Accent) and has a license, so stay off the road until she learns how to work the clutch.
I really like the pace of summer. Especially the pace of summer at camp.

Hey Rocky,
This is Ivy, I know that Chippie tols me she was coming back in January, but did she ever make it? How about Nessie? Let me know if the campers are as great as ever, I miss being outside and hanging out with kids all dat; it's a lot more fun than desk work. :)

Chipie isn't at camp this year: she injured her knee and needs the summer to recouperate. I have no idea what Nessie is up to these days. Did you get to see her over winter break?

Tofu would be cheaper than gas. Especially in Korea.
