Nice to be home...

After two-plus weeks at Not Back To School Camp, Ben is finally home! It's so nice to have him here.

Don and I drove to Eugene on Wednesday, with plans to pick Ben up on Thursday. We enjoyed a nice dinner at World Cafe, a brisk walk around town, and a pleasant stay at the annex of the local hostel.

The next day, we met at the park, where campers were unloading their gear from the bus, giving hugs, and saying their goodbyes. They were sad to part, but ready to go home.

It sounds like Ben thoroughly enjoyed his camp experience. I'm sure we'll hear lots of camp stories during the weeks and months to come. It makes me so glad that we read all those John Holt and Grace Llewellyn books when Ben was little.
