Today was another wonderful day at camp. The day was filled with lots of game and a much deserved sleep in period that gave everyone a little more energy. The day started with waking up at 0800, instead 0700, and then proceeded onto breakfast and cabin clean up time. (Maybe by the time the kids get home they’ll be so used to cleaning up their room after breakfast that they will continue to do it during the school year!!!) For the counselors today was considered our “day off” and we were gifted with a 2 hour break from the kids and got to go get coffee or just take a nap, which we gladly accepted. The kids went off to their morning chapel as usual and then out for recreation. This recreation was different then the rest and we just played a huge game of dye-wars with the whole meadow ranch camp. The kids got red dye all over them, and so did the counselors for that matter. Afterwards there was a giant slip and slide competition, in which Melinda participated; however she landed on her face instead of the raft. She looked like Santa at the end due to all the soap on her face. For lunch today we had a picnic on the meadow and then we went off to free time. For free time today most of the kids came with Melinda, Michelle, and me (drew) down to the cove and went for a hike up the river. It was a gorgeous sight to behold. The remainder of the day was spent eating dinner and then attending a concert by The Hank Murphy band, followed by chapel and then a little bit of ranch time and a skateboard competition that was entertaining to watch. By the end of the day most of the kids were worn out, but definitely all of the counselors were ready for bed.
