Sunday is a quiet day at camp. We sleep in, have a late breakfast, then some go to church and the others take it easy. We went to the beach after lunch as usual, but the blog stopped uploading photos for some reason, so you only get 2 tonight. Hopefully, it will fix itself by tomorrow.

John Lamb and Skipper discuss the good old days.

Peter does some reading on the beach. Wait, did I say reading? In the summer? Wow, that warms this retired teacher's heart.

After supper, we attended the band concert in Oak Bluffs. Mac plays in the band, and was the only one with a fan club as far as we could tell. Go Mac!

This is not a sit down and fall asleep kind of concert. It's a skip around the gazebo kind of concert. We do like to get joyful.

Dominic gets some dancing done.

And when it's dark and they have played the national anthem, we head for the bus and vans, and try to remember to take all the campers and belongings with us. (Big day in lost and found tomorrow.)

After an inspirational music hour, we started the morning activities. We created pinatas to use at our pirate carnival on Tues. We made a great mess and only popped a few balloons. We're not sure how pinatas are linked to pirates, but we like them so they got included. We also had some wild and crazy baseball games on the hard top. The third activity was watercolor painting. The results were amazing.

Brie and Caitlin were very brave to run this activity. Thanks.

Gloves help.

Swing, batter, swing!


Happy birthday Andrew! (He's a teenager today.)

Ash makes it to third.

Amanda guards third base. She doesn't want anyone to steal it.

Caitlin inspires her buddies, Eamon and Josh.

Kirk creates another masterpiece. Danielle supervises.

Gary is all concentration. Painting is his specialty.

Here are the photos from the Biscuit Burner concert. We enjoyed ourselves and made a scene. That's what it's all about.

We got in early so we could get the best seats.

Here they are!

Mac's family came to visit. Toby (the dog) barked every time we clapped.
He either really loves or really hates applause. But at least he participated in the fun.







We don't need no stinking wheelchairs, we gotta dance!

The morning activities were beading, yoga, and pottery. Everyone participated with enthusiasm, and Michael was so happy with yoga that he stayed there all morning. He was very relaxed. He may have even been snoring.

Beach time!

Mac and Jeremy discuss bus maintenance.

Josh creates his own shade.

Paul gets a lecture about speeding.

Counselors and campers kept themselves busy rearranging the beach.

Craig got in the water for the first time this summer. Next time he'll go in up to his shins.

After the beach, we rushed through our showers and headed off to Oak Bluffs. Some of us went to fly kites and walk around, and the rest went for a fishing expedition on the Skipper.

Katie caught a monster!

Ash and Darren made a good team. Darren helped us remove all those wiggly guys so we could let them go for next year.

Gracie caught some vegetables for us.

Paul fished for hours without a bite. Then he started calling, "Here, fishy, fishy". It worked!
