We have spent a great deal of time in the woods without a single tick sighting. Have they migrated to the west like the stink bugs? Hikes, tractor rides and picking never-ending supplies of blackberries. Today was Creek Creations at camp. Lily worked with Kayla and Kylie, the other two girls, trading jobs of designer, builder and engineer, to create a huge fortress that housed bugs. For each creation, a story needed to be conjured. I’m hoping to hear that tomorrow! Ollie and Em took a hike today and discovered sassafras and the huge variety of mushrooms in the woods. Everyone is snoozing now. š“
