We Found Water in Tucson!

It wasn’t hard to find really… You just get on the highway and drive until you see a bunch of water slides! Those dark cumulus clouds were making me worry a bit on the drive to Breakers but it turned out ok. We had a few sprinkles here and there throughout the day but no thunder and no lightning. That meant more slides and more time in the wave pool! Everyone had a super great time and I think I’m the only one that got a sunburn so that’s awesome! I wasn’t able to take very many pictures… camera and phone in the wave pool = not such a great idea, but I was able to snap a few from dry ground.

Fun at Day Camp!

We’re having lots of fun at Camp this week! I was too busy at the beginning of the week to get pictures and film taken of archery, climbing on the rock wall or even Breakers! But we have lots of pictures now! I’ll try to be better about taking pictures next week and I’ll keep my Flip on me at all times, I promise! I think next week it might be fun to have some of our Campers and PA’s be guest bloggers and talk about their experiences at Camp too! (Actually, I guess we could do that today huh?) Enjoy the pictures!
