Summer loving!

I got invited to be a counselor for a couple days at a girls camp that is run by the Reserve every summer. The kids who are invited are usually those whose life is pretty tough at home. It was good to see them laugh and generally have a good time. Dont get me wrong, teens will be teens and where there are teens be sure to find drama 🙂 I learned how to clean fish the Pik way, the time it took me to finish one which was around 10 mins, the ladies had probably done 3 or 4. LOL!

It was a fun, challenging experience,  I hope to get invited again, probably next summer since the next couple weeks look pretty busy.
