distractions






a week has flown by already!

good ol'narragansett cabin has kept busy by going on the "snowgoose" for the day - the camp's lobster boat! a full day of sunbathing, fishing and lobstering . . . with only a few tears from the cabin's resident vegetarian who did not appreciate seeing fish flop to death in a bucket . . . pretty gruesome for an 11-year-old. contrasted to the boys who also go out on this boat, there was a chorus of little girls everytime a fish got caught, "ohhh can we let him go?! . . . he's so pretty!! . . . let's let him free!"

in addition, liza demonstrated that freedom is not free.

the very next day, cabin narragansett set out in the wild for an overnight primer trip - a short canoe jaunt down the lake in back. there were many s'mores which, coupled with hot cocoa, made for a raucous night of pants-off running around and speaking to trees in british accents. there was also much frolicking-in-the-water and singing-of-our-all-time-favorite-song/dance, of course substituting "lass" for "lad".



obama also has the 11-12 year old demographic in the bag, should he be worried.
