God bless America. Seriously! This is one of about 3 4th of Julys that I can remember not being at Camp DeSoto. The other 3 - St. Augustine, Athens, and... no idea. So maybe this one is number three? Oh, I was in Costa Rica for the third. So, I think this makes number 4? I can tell you what. 4th of Julys at camp are something special. You get woken up with crackers going off and the smell of smoke. Then you get to deck yourself out in red, white, and blue and dance the day away. Sing patriotic songs, eat huge pieces of watermelon, county fair, and of course the entertaining fireworks show at the end of the night.
This 4th, I will be spending it working on reading articles and writing summaries about them. Sounds fun right? Maybe a cookout tonight? Not sure. But, I am sure am thankful for this place that seems to be going down the drain. We still have religious freedom and other freedoms lots of other people do not ever get to experience, so thank God for that! And thank God for Camp DeSoto ;)

Let's just say I provide my family with hours of laughs on my wardrobe choices. I am often told by Jen or Tom that I look homeless. Ha, I call it creativity and personal style.
