Yes, getting all the crap together in preparation for packing the trunks was the biggest pain in ass ever but honestly, once that part was done the act of actually putting the shit into the trunks wasn’t that bad. I mean, it’s not rocket science. Believe it or not, … Continued
It would take forever to type the countless quotes about how everything in life changes and nothing stays the same. To some degree the famous sayings are all true. However, as I grow up one thing does remain, and that is the love I have for my Dad. Last June I published the blog titled, … Continued
In 1981 I was given the gift of Sleep-away camp. For six summers after that, the gift kept on giving. Without a shadow of a doubt, the weeks of Sleep-away camp were by and large the greatest times of my entire childhood. As unpolished as I may be, I can honestly say that most of … Continued
