This week I took Eva up to Camp Arcadia in Maine and left her there. WAH! (That's me crying, not Eva.) It rained the morning of drop off but things cleared up quickly and she was so happy to be back and to see all of her friends. The returning counselors were surprised by how much she had grown. I cannot believe that I made that trip and took NO CAMERA. Here are a couple of photos taken with my cruddy Blackberry camera. The indoor photo is terrible but it shows Eva in her cabin with Emmie, her good friend from camp last year. The girls have kept in touch all year long and were so excited to see each other. The outdoor photo is Eva in front her cabin, Plebe 2. This has a much less picturesque name than last year's cabin (Chickadee) and I do not recall seeing any electricity in this cabin. Today we received our first letters from Eva. One was to the family and one was specifically to Lyra. Let me tell you Lyra was positively ecstatic to get her own mail personally addressed to her. Similar to last year, the water is cold. But it sounds like she has settled in nicely; there was no immediate request for us to go up there and bring her home.
